President Mohamed Nasheed has this afternoon met with the founders of Mission Maldives.
Mission Maldives is a voluntary organization formed by three British nationals with the aim of making voluntary projects more easily available and affordable. The organization aims to bring volunteers in the areas currently lacking in suitable skilled and educated staff. The organization has already begun a number of programmes with schools in the Maldives.
Speaking at the meeting, President Nasheed commended the organization for its contribution to the Maldives society.
President Nasheed said the government gave high priority towards promoting greater involvement and contribution of volunteers in the socio-economic and political development of the Maldives.
