Ayant grandi aupr\u00e8s d\u2019une m\u00e8re c\u00e9libataire, Liam Clifford a tr\u00e8s vite pris conscience des obstacles disproportionn\u00e9s auxquels les femmes sont confront\u00e9es dans la soci\u00e9t\u00e9. Lorsqu\u2019il s\u2019est mis \u00e0 la recherche d\u2019une opportunit\u00e9 de volontariat \u00e0 l\u2019international pour acqu\u00e9rir une exp\u00e9rience internationale et s\u2019enrichir de diff\u00e9rentes perspectives culturelles, HerStart s\u2019est impos\u00e9 comme un choix \u00e9vident ; la mission du programme \u2014pour favoriser l'autonomie \u00e9conomique des femmes confront\u00e9es \u00e0 des in\u00e9galit\u00e9s sociales<\/strong>\u2014 qui correspondait parfaitement \u00e0 ses ambitions et \u00e0 ses valeurs.<\/p>\n

Liam a rejoint l'\u00e9quipe de YCI Ouganda en tant que volontaire en charge du programme et des partenariats en 2023, o\u00f9 il collabore avec notre partenaire HerStart, Acad\u00e9mie de l'innovation sociale (SINA)<\/strong>, une association locale qui estime que l'entrepreneuriat social peut \u00eatre \u00e0 l'origine d'un changement structurel en faveur des jeunes en situation de pr\u00e9carit\u00e9.

Pour Liam, le programme de volontariat HerStart International a \u00e9t\u00e9 une une initiative audacieuse en terrain inconnu<\/strong>, ce qui a marqu\u00e9 sa premi\u00e8re exp\u00e9rience de volontariat de longue dur\u00e9e \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9tranger. Son travail ant\u00e9rieur au sein de la Croix-Rouge canadienne dans le domaine de la gestion des urgences lui avait permis d\u2019affiner ses capacit\u00e9s d\u2019adaptation et de flexibilit\u00e9 \u2014 deux atouts qui se sont r\u00e9v\u00e9l\u00e9s inestimables tout au long de ce programme. Encourag\u00e9 par un mentor de la Croix-Rouge, il a saisi cette opportunit\u00e9 non seulement pour enrichir son exp\u00e9rience professionnelle, mais aussi pour approfondir sa compr\u00e9hension de la diversit\u00e9 culturelle et des actions humanitaires \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9chelle mondiale.<\/p>\n

Travailler directement avec des femmes entrepreneures locales motivantes et engag\u00e9es a \u00e9t\u00e9 le moment fort du s\u00e9jour de Liam en Ouganda. En leur apportant un accompagnement et une formation dans des domaines cl\u00e9s, il a eu l\u2019occasion de rencontrer r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement les entrepreneures de HerStart, contribuant ainsi \u00e0 la croissance et au d\u00e9veloppement de leurs entreprises ainsi qu\u2019\u00e0 leurs comp\u00e9tences en mati\u00e8re de leadership. Il a expliqu\u00e9 comment Pouvoir constater de mes propres yeux, en temps r\u00e9el, leurs progr\u00e8s et leur d\u00e9vouement a \u00e9t\u00e9 une exp\u00e9rience incroyablement enrichissante.<\/strong>. En nouant des relations solides avec les diff\u00e9rentes parties prenantes du programme, il s'est senti profond\u00e9ment li\u00e9 \u00e0 la communaut\u00e9 et \u00e0 l'impact de la mission de YCI.<\/p>\n

Le fait de rencontrer r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement des entrepreneurs issus de divers horizons a incit\u00e9 Liam \u00e0 mener une r\u00e9flexion permanente sur lui-m\u00eame. Dans l\u2019ensemble, ce programme de volontariat a renforc\u00e9 sa confiance en sa capacit\u00e9 \u00e0 relever de nouveaux d\u00e9fis \u2014 une comp\u00e9tence essentielle dans le domaine des interventions d\u2019urgence. Mais surtout, cela a repens\u00e9 sa conception de la r\u00e9ussite<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201c Le succ\u00e8s n'est pas une question de savoir qui vous \u00eates ou qui vous n'\u00eates pas, c'est\u2026 \u00bb<\/em>\u2019<\/em>c'est la certitude d'avancer dans la bonne direction vers les vertus et les principes que vous souhaitez cultiver <\/em>sur.\u00a0<\/em>\u201d Tant que vous suivez la voie qui m\u00e8ne \u00e0 ces vertus personnelles, c'est une voie vers la r\u00e9ussite. \u00bb <\/em><\/p>\n

\u2013 Liam, volontaire de HerStart International<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Liam estime que de nombreux volontaires internationaux arrivent dans leur pays d'affectation avec des id\u00e9es pr\u00e9con\u00e7ues sur la r\u00e9ussite et l'impact de leur mission, pour finalement se retrouver \u00e0 revoir ces attentes \u00e0 la lumi\u00e8re des d\u00e9fis et des enseignements tir\u00e9s de leur exp\u00e9rience sur le terrain.<\/p>\n

La passion de Liam pour la gestion des situations d'urgence s'est encore renforc\u00e9e gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 son exp\u00e9rience au sein de HerStart. Cette opportunit\u00e9 est devenue un moment d\u00e9cisif de sa carri\u00e8re, qui lui a permis de y voir plus clair quant \u00e0 la suite de son parcours.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201c Ce stage a radicalement chang\u00e9 le cours de mes activit\u00e9s et l'orientation que j'avais prise. J'ai pu prendre le temps de m'asseoir et de planifier mon avenir \u00e0 moyen terme, ce qui m'a permis d'examiner de pr\u00e8s ce que je faisais et de mener une r\u00e9flexion personnelle sur les raisons qui me poussaient \u00e0 le faire. \u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

\u2013 Liam, volontaire de HerStart International<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Tout au long de son s\u00e9jour en Ouganda, Liam a adopt\u00e9 une c<\/em><\/strong>\u2019<\/em><\/strong>c'est la vie<\/em><\/strong> \u00e9tat d'esprit<\/strong>, en s'ouvrant \u00e0 de nouvelles exp\u00e9riences et en trouvant la s\u00e9r\u00e9nit\u00e9 face \u00e0 l'incertitude. Ce programme de volontariat lui a appris \u00e0 relever les d\u00e9fis, \u00e0 prendre des risques mesur\u00e9s et \u00e0 avoir confiance en sa capacit\u00e9 \u00e0 s'adapter \u00e0 de nouvelles situations.<\/p>\n

Ayant choisi une voie en accord avec ses valeurs et ses objectifs plut\u00f4t qu\u2019une vie de confort, Liam travaille d\u00e9sormais dans le nord du Canada en tant que technicien en gestion des urgences au sein du minist\u00e8re de la Gestion des urgences et de la Pr\u00e9paration au changement climatique de la Colombie-Britannique. Son parcours avec HerStart lui a non seulement a r\u00e9affirm\u00e9 son engagement en faveur de l'impact social<\/strong> mais lui a \u00e9galement fourni des comp\u00e9tences et des connaissances inestimables<\/strong> qui continuent aujourd\u2019hui encore \u00e0 fa\u00e7onner sa carri\u00e8re.<\/p>\n
