VSA believes that development assistance works best when local
people decide their own goals and the type of assistance required to
achieve them. VSA provides people, not money - volunteers whose
personal and professional skills can be used by communities to bring
about positive change.
VSA volunteers have professional experience and qualifications. Our
volunteers also have the ability to share their skills and knowledge
with local people, and stregthen the capacity of local organisations.
They work in many fields - education, health, agriculture, small
business development and more.
VSA volunteers have a common aim: to share their skills, experience
and energy with the people they work alongside, and with the wider
community. In this way, a volunteer's contribution can continue to
bring benefits to an organisation long after they have returned to New
Zealand.
