Volunteer project: The aim of the project is to work with the local population to develop a sanitary infrastructure, as right now there is a lack there of. The volunteers will work on building public facilities such as latrines, and will have to pick up sand and gravel, make bricks, build foundations and walls.

Volunteers will be also involved in reforestation activities around a youth center in the town. Volunteers' tasks consist of filling sachets, putting nurseries in the sachets and watering them, land clearance, planting the seedlings. During the project, volunteers will have talks with local farmers about the ravages of anarchic bush fires. Volunteers will organize activities on environmental education for the children so that the work already done lasts forever.

Volunteers will work 5 hours in the morning. They will be free in the afternoons and can join various cultural activities with the locals.

Location: The town of Kpalimé has around 80000 inhabitants. It is a friendly town situated at an altitude of 250 m. The group will visit the arts centre and the weaving-ateliers of Kpalimé. Taking the route to Kpando up in the mountains, you will pass by cascades, woods of teak and lush vegetation. After some 11 km you will reach Kloto at an altitude of 600 m. Passing by some goat herds, you'll reach Missahohé, a picturesque site dominated by the Mount Kloto (960 m) from where you have magnificent view over Kpalimé and Mount Agou.
