Twenty male and female trainees participated in a training course for improving the skills and medical awareness of voluntary and social service workers. The course was organized from 12th-14th September by the French Organization (Dia) in its social center in Taiz. Ameen Al-Dub'ee, director of social activities at the organization, explained that the course aims at preparing those belonging to poor categories in the shanty areas in Taiz, and training them on how to carry out voluntary work and offer social services to the poorest population in Al-Moshiqi zone and Al-Amal housing development.
He also indicated that the program of the course would cover a number of theoretical and practical lectures on the above-mentioned tasks, their social significance, and obstacles. Individuals' motivation towards the voluntary work and their satisfaction will be covered in the lectures as well as strategies for public awareness.
