BACKGROUND:
Since 2005, Handicap International has been recycling used prosthetics. The role of volunteers is invaluable: they disassemble prosthetics, extract usable components (feet, knees, etc.), meticulously clean these elements, recondition them, and store them systematically until they are sent to partner centers in Africa and Asia. This initiative provides prosthetics to beneficiaries who would otherwise lack access.
Volunteers also contribute to the workshop's daily activities (receiving/sending packages, etc.). In a joyful and friendly atmosphere, each volunteer finds their place according to their skills.

Reporting to the Project Manager for Liimba, the Workshop Leader ensures the daily technical and operational management of the workshop, guaranteeing the quality of reconditioning processes, the proper organization of activities, and the smooth operation of the workshop.
