VRCS Volunteers Roles & Responsibilities

Helping the most vulnerable, without discrimination, through voluntary service for a resilient and inclusive Vanuatu.

With funding through the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, Vanuatu Red Cross Society conducted an induction training this week with the Volunteers of VRCS in Tafea Branch. The purpose of the induction training is to help volunteers to learn and understand their roles and responsibilities as volunteers and also understand the role of VRCS, the seven principals or rules and policies that will guide them while conducting voluntary work in the field or in a community before, during and after a disaster. It was wonderful to see them recognize their roles and responsibilities and start to step into their role as volunteers of VRCS!

"Youths can also have a great impact on the environment or Society during disasters or even during pandemic crisis where they can help distribute Non Food Items (NFI) to needy people. Red Cross Program can help improve youth Communication skills and have the confident to speak in a community or a public meeting and also enable and motivate you to become a future leader in this Nation," says Cynthia Simon, VRCS volunteer - Tafea Branch.
