Volunteering

(Anna Weritz from Hamburg, Germany)

Supporting us as a volunteer will offer you the possibility to broaden your views and experiences while working in a team with international volunteers. We welcome all individuals, irrespective of age and background. All you need is motivation to share your knowledge and willingness to devote some of your time. Identify your most useful skills and choose in which area you would like to get involved:

•  You have a background in Health and Health-related issues? Support Ecumenical Sangam in organising Health, Hygiene and Sanitation Awareness Camps in villages and slums around Nagpur

•  If you come from the legal background, as a Law Student or related sectors, share your knowledge with those who are unaware of their basic rights! Help in organising Legal Awareness Camps to empower villagers and slum dwellers through Rule of Law. Making people aware about schemes like the Right to Information Act is of tremendous importance to fight corruption and to promote development.

•  Your background or future area of interest is Business Management? You can support the empowerment of Self Help Groups through Micro-Enterprises

• Your interest is agriculture and environmental sustainability? Help us to spread and improve knowledge about Water and Soil Management among the farmers in reach of our rural Base Centre 35 km south of Nagpur.

The timeframe of voluntary work is flexible and depends on your personal availability and our requirements. We welcome all kind of commitment, whether you wish to volunteer once a week or once per month for a specific project.

If you are interested in supporting us as a volunteer please contact our Office .
