    Volunteer Feedback

    • Many teachers are interested in subject matter. I really like the mission of CIDO and Green Shoots working with public schools' teachers and students. From my own observation, there is less and less mention of agriculture or agriculture-related  activities in public schools in general which make agriculture look less important than other fields

    • Green Shoots easily accessible and approachable to give advice on the mission, troubleshoot, provide documentation for visas etc.  It was particularly helpful to be put into contact with previous and current volunteers to learn more about their experiences, life in Myanmar.  The Volunteer Handbook prepared by Sarah and Danny was especially useful

    • I have thoroughly enjoyed this project in Yangon, Myanmar and am very appreciative of the opportunity. My aim for the project was to provide nurses and counselling staff with sexual and reproductive health training which they would not normally get access to

    • Overall I had an extremely positive experience working with both Green Shoots and MAM, learned a lot myself, I hope passed on some knowledge and guidance to the MDs in clinics, and have I hope helped with some clearer and more concise guidance for the management of NCDs.

      — MAME Volunteer, 2019

    • Overall I had the most wonderful time, it was not without struggles at times, but I am very grateful for the opportunity.  MAM are a wonderful organisation, Nini Tun has abundant energy and drive and a will to improve things for her country.  The clinic staff on the whole showed immense commitment to their work.

    • Discovering the beauty of the center. I am very impressed by this great design and how this project involves the local community.

      — Agri-Tech volunteer, 2019

    • This was my first real professional experience which made it quite formative. Although the overall climate is vastly different from what we would see in an occidental office for example. Green Shoots and Muneezay taught me a lot about the workings of an NGO which is sure to be helpful if I am ever going to make it in this industry

      — Agri-Tech Summer Volunteer, 2019

    • This experience has been one of the most professionally and humanely fulfilling and gratifying I have ever experienced. I am ever so grateful to the managerial and clinical team for welcoming and accepting me as a member of their team
