We are looking for a team of volunteers who want to develop a learning module on financial- and resource management to complement a manual for our Life Skills training programme targeting youth in secondary schools in four African countries: Tanzania, Togo, Congo and Chad. By implementing regular Life Skills trainings in secondary schools, youth are supported to grow into confident adults leading healthy lifes. The programme aims specifically to educate and sensitise youths to increase awareness on the risks of alcohol- and drug consumption and to then influence their behaviour. 

The weekly training sessions are led by Life Skills coaches facilitating the acquisition of skills touching upon the thematic fields related to alcohol-and drug harm such as addiction, HIV, discrimination, violence and gender issues. As a good organisation of financial issues and household budget is a prerequisite to cope with daily life challenges, we would like to enhance our Life Skills training by educating youth on how to manage financial resources (household budgeting, insurances, taxes etc.). Explicitely in the context of the low-income setting of developing countries it is important that people are aware of how to best manage their resources with acquiring the best possible life quality, taking into account social- and health protection.
