CBW provides a range of services to child victims of natural and man-made disasters through several programs. Services meet the educational, recreational, and sanitation and housing needs of refugee children and youth.

Technical
Project overview
The technical team is responsible for maintaining all CBW buildings and infrastructure, as well as facilitating expansion through construction.

Activities of project
The activities of the technical team depend on what CBW requires, but examples include:

1. Construction of buildings.
2. Building of fences (e.g. on school grounds, community football field).
3. Carpentry.

Local volunteers involved in programme
Supervisor: Clay
Team members: Cityboy, Patrick

Programme timetable
The programme timetable is agreed every week at a meeting on the preceding Friday.

International volunteers in technical programme
International volunteers assist the technical team with all of their activities. Specifically, there is scope for them to:

1. Assist with manual labour.
2. Help with project budgeting.

There are no specific qualifications required to work with the technical programme but relevant skills, such as carpentry, are very much appreciated. In addition, budgeting skills are useful as this is a financially intensive programme.

It is important to read the handover notes of previous volunteers on the technical programme to ensure continuity between volunteers.
