Firstly,
for local volunteers, partner organization and "Passage-Zebra"
each workcamp is a concrete step in a way of long term co-operation...
Age
limit: 18 - 26 years old but exceptions for older volunteers
are possible
Work:
Usually volunteers will work about 30 hours a week (for
example six hours a day about five days a week). Exceptions
are mentioned in the description.
Campleaders:
Usually our camps have one or two campleaders, who will
facilitate the coordination between volunteers, host organisation
and local community, help to organise free time activities
and who are responsible for administrative and financial
aspects of the camp life.
The
level and intensity of contact depends entirely on the local
possibilities and can be very different in different workcamps.
In some camps there will be close contact to the local population
and volunteers should be open for this. We cannot provide
excursions to other big cities v they are quite far from
each other and the time of a camp is limited. That's why
we concentrate on Voronezh region which is rich in natural
reserves, historical heritage, rivers, forests, architectural
monuments.
Official
invitations: We will need a copy of the passport/ID of a
volunteer with an expiration date and date of birth. We
also need to know the embassy the volunteer is going to
get the visa from. According to Russian law foreigners have
to get a registration in Russia during 3 working days after
their arrival. PLEASE TAKE A MIGRATION CARD at the airport
in Russia. Usually you get the stamp of the registration
automatically in the hotel for the period of your living
there. Later the registration will be done by Passage-Zebra,
it takes 1 day, which a volunteer will have to spend without
the passport.
