Where will I be located if I choose to participate?
In any state you request, but may have to accommodate according to the planning of the team.
Will I be working in a group or individually?
ALWAYS in groups of around 10-15 people consisting of activists from the local affiliated centre and student volunteers. Wherever possible you will work, travel and reside together. Sometimes, the team may be split e.g. between host houses, but you will always come back together.
There will be a balance of gender, language abilities, experience etc. and we will NOT be able to take any requests to be assigned to a particular team. Each team will have a team leader and all volunteers are expected to follow guidelines, cooperate and act in the best interest of the team at all times.
Where will we live during the internship?
You will be staying with a host family, or a common building of the village in the area assigned to your team. The details of the boarding and lodging will be shared with you after your batch has been formed.
You should be prepared to not get basic modern-day comforts and be open to experiencing a different way of life. For women volunteers, arrangements will be with a local family only.
What do I get out of this?
An experience of a lifetime, a real sense of how people that give us food, live.
CERTIFICATE in your name, signed by people respected for their commitment to the ordinary Indian.
Will I get paid?/ Do I have to pay?
