Lesotho volunteer here, expected COS is in December. As the first cohort back, we only had 15 volunteers at the start, and had our 7th departure a few days ago. Is this normal?

As a RPCV myself (Lesotho), I was disappointed to find there weren't any communities on the fediverse relating to the organization. Voila! We now have a forum.
