# North Africa Outreach ## Join us in making a tangible difference through ministry opportunities in North Africa. [ Upcoming Courses ](#up-coming-courses) ## **What is OUTNA?** OUTNA is a month-long outreach based around our community development centre in North Africa. Participants get involved in a number of amazing ministries, such as teaching workshops and basic skills to refugees and displaced people, sharing and encouraging existing Christian communities, building relationships with locals, reaching the lost, and supporting the work of our long-term team.  The OUTNA takes place every year in August. You can join either for the first 2 weeks, the second 2 weeks, or for the entire month. ![A group of five young adults smiling at the camera.](https://ywamlausanne.com/media/webflow/6780fa13d912802209a84962_Mediterranean-12.webp) ## **Why Join OUTNA?** OUTNA offers a unique opportunity to make a tangible impact in the lives of marginalised communities.
