What safeguards does CADS provide for an American or European who wants to go to Sierra Leone to do humanitarian work?
CADS, as a registered non-governmental organization, fully cooperates with the Government of Sierra Leone and the United Nations in pursuing the national peace and development objectives of the country. As such, the center very well works with the Government of Sierra Leone and the UN, and the Sierra Leone Police, to make sure all its volunteers are fully protected. It is our policy that as soon as a volunteer of CADS arrives in the country, the United Nations Mission in Sierra Leone and the Sierra Leone Police are immediately notified by registering the volunteer as a visiting representative of CADS.
