ABOUT ICS
THERE ARE THREE STAGES TO THE ICS PROGRAMME
It is compulsory to complete all stages of the programme.
THE ICS PROGRAMME HAS THREE AIMS
1. PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
ICS is a learning opportunity for you. By taking part on ICS you will learn new skills, meet new people and learn things that you can’t get from a book or article in the UK. ICS is journey that will encourage your personal development all the way through.
2. DEVELOPMENT IMPACT
It is important to us that the projects we run in country have development impact on the communities we work in. In many cases, we have been working in these communities for many years and you are adding to the impact we have.
3. ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP
Active citizenship is the active engagement of people in their own societies, in pursuit of social benefits beyond family and friends. Such engagement builds stronger societies that play an active role in community and national development. By August 2016, ICS will create a global community of more than 14,000 active citizens – a lasting legacy of young people contributing positively to their communities and to fighting poverty. We want to help you become an active and engaged citizen through Action at Home and beyond.
RESTLESS DEVELOPMENT AND ICS
In 2012, Restless Development and VSO introduced Voices For Development to our ICS programme. Voices for Development is a programme enhancement that enables us to give our volunteers additional support and training throughout their time on ICS in media and capturing stories from the people they meet on their placement. We then encourage our volunteers to share their experiences once they are home as part of their Action at Home. Our volunteers have done this in a variety of ways including; making videos, writing blogs and, telling their story through local and nation media
