Volunteer:

Kristin Jean O'Planick

Country:

Guinea (2000-2002)

Sector/Work:

English teacher (lycee)

In addition to teaching English, I assisted with planning for the Regional Girls' Conference in Kankan in my second year. I did additional after-school tutoring for girls with APROFIS. I also served as the regional rep on the national Gender, AIDS, and Development Committee.

My site mate was Ursula (Urska) Manners. We were the first female volunteers to serve in Siguiri.

After service I was working with Chemonics International and managed a USAID-funded agribusiness development project in Guinea during 2005-2006. The project had two PCVs assisting with our shea butter development.
