Response from
Thanks for sharing, Kristina! It's great to hear you had such a rewarding time in Jamaica teaching children about Human Rights. Indeed, this is a subject that is very unknown by the population in general, which is why the help from proactive volunteers from around the world is much needed. Your assistance was greatly appreciated!
We also welcome our volunteers' feedback, which is why we will take your comments into assessment with our local staff in Jamaica - we are always looking for ways to improve!
