USHIRIKIANO CENTRUM (Malindi, Kenya) Mary's Catholic Dispensary in MSABAHA is a project founded and supported by the St. Elizabeth University of Healt and Social sciences. Provides educational, social and nutritional support for people in need and comprehensive care for people infected with HIV. The Center was established in September 2011. The Center originally originated as a malnutrition project, but after a survey of the area and needs of the site it changed after 2 months to a social-educational center. Since December 2011, due to the high number of people infected with HIV, HIV has been launched in cooperation with Malindi District Hospital. There are not enough experts and social workers in the area, so the project is also aimed at supporting local capacity building, as the volunteer will work in an international team and will be involved in the dissemination of knowledge and experience. The aim of the project is also to promote intercultural dialogue, strengthen solidarity and understanding between peoples and long-term partnerships between organizations and communities in Malindi. Volunteer stay will be part of preparation for work in development cooperation.
