UNFPA Reproductive Health Campaign for Adolescents.
The United Nations Population Fund, is an international development agency that promotes the right of every woman, man and child to enjoy a life of health and equal opportunity. UNFPA supports countries in using population data for policies and programs to reduce poverty and to ensure that every pregnancy is wanted, every birth is safe, every young person is free of HIV/AIDS, and every girl and woman is treated with dignity and respect.
This project aims to work with adolescents in the local schools and women in the surrounding communities.

This program is developed in coordination with the Health Centre of Urubamba.

Assisting a Physician in Urubamba
Peru is the fastest growing country in South America, however the social and cultural rights have not been strengthened and there is still 40% of Peruvians living in poverty.

The health care system represents one of the most important but poorest sectors of the Peruvian national services. The lack of assigned resources and the scarcity of personnel is a reflection of it.

The Health Centre of Urubamba, managed by the Ministry of Health, has been registered as a Centro de Capacitaciones (Medical Training Centre) and is seeking for motivated and hardworking medical students and nurses who would like to work as volunteers.

Volunteers will help in daily duties and in some medical campaigns. Furthermore, volunteers will have the opportunity to have a direct learning experience from the medical doctors at the Health Centre.
