Dear Ernst and Fikiswa Bam - welcome to Nabuur! You have already gotten pretty far for being new! It's good to see that you've created a profile for yourself and that you have found your way to the Kiserian village.
As you may have read, Nabuur matches projects in developing countries with online volunteers. Each project has a separate "village" in the Nabuur community. You'll see at the top several tabs including overview, background, project room, etc. This is where you can learn about the project and read about what has happened to date. The project room is where all the work takes place. Here you will find the major tasks that the village local representative in partnership with their facilitator feel are important priorities for the project to move forward on the ground. Each task has a description which should provide information on what needs to be done - some tasks are good for 1-person to work on, others require input from the entire group. Suggestions and ideas are welcome on possible strategies for moving forward, or perhaps resources to contact.
If you have questions along the way, the best people to ask are the village local representative (who represents the project on the ground) and/or the village facilitator (if available). Right now, Nabuur is undergoing some transitions, so sometimes it can be confusing who to ask for help when you need it. You can contact me too if you have further questions.
We're happy to have you aboard! All the best - Jennifer
