    Welcome to María Belén - New Project Manager for Nepal

    My name is María Belén Zambrano and I am the new Nepal Project Officer for the ONGD-FNEL. I come from Ecuador and arrived in Luxembourg with my family on a beautiful summer's day in 1999. I have always been interested in the dynamics of social work and development, which led me to work in the NGO sector.   Before starting with ONGD-FNEL, I worked for various NGOs in Luxembourg such as SOS Faim, Humanity & Inclusion and ADA. During my last position, I was in charge of SOS Faim's partnerships in Mali and Ethiopia, monitoring partners' activities on the promotion of agroecology, the defence of land rights and women's empowerment. While working at Humanity & Inclusion, I monitored several projects in Africa, Asia and South America promoting vocational training and integration into the labour market for people with disabilities. I also had the opportunity to take part in Luxdev's Junior Technical Assistant (JTA) programme in Cape Verde for two years and discover the world of bilateral cooperation.   As I settle into my new role, I'm looking forward to working with local partners and discovering Nepal. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions! María Belén

    Words from our Volunteer in Nepal: May 2024

    May 2024: End of my Voluntary Service

    Five months of volunteering in Nepal seemed long, but the time flew by quickly. I am happy to say that it was an extraordinary experience during which I learned a lot about Nepal and its people, working in an organization, and about myself. It's an experience I will never forget and would gladly do again. Of course, there were moments of frustration and difficult periods, but they were quickly forgotten thanks to the hospitality of the Nepalese people, like when I was invited for tea. The work with R4C was varied and always interesting. I learned a lot about the functioning of an NGO and discovered the working differences and similarities with Luxembourg. Another advantage of volunteering in the same place for an extended period is that you create a second home. This was truly wonderful and also helped me learn more about the country and its culture through prolonged immersion. Finally, I am very happy to have had this experience and hope to revisit Nepal soon.
