Furthermore,
both construction and community development projects require strong leadership
from capable and committed volunteers. Therefore, we ask volunteers with
technical expertise – whether acquired before or after arriving at IVN – to
help guide other team members by ensuring they are prepared and properly
trained to effectively execute the tasks required of a particular project. They
are also responsible for coordinating with the Executive Chairman and other
members of the IVN Management Team as well as ensuring quality monitoring and
evaluation.
