Volunteers
“Everyone I talk to who’s got time on their hands I say hey, you haven’t lived until you’ve done something like this.” – Ian Macklin.
You’ll be amazed at how your skills can be used. Imagine yourself writing grant proposals, improving computer systems, working on agricultural and environmental issues, or teaching people to sew. Any and all skills are valuable, whether they come from a profession, trade, or even a hobby.
It is important for potential volunteers to be aware that ICV hunts and gathers volunteers to work on community-driven projects. We don’t hunt and gather projects for volunteers to work on. While we see both communities and volunteers as our clients, we are first and foremost as a community and human development organisation. In a practical sense, this means we are community driven, not volunteer driven.
Once you are registered with ICV, Indigenous communities can invite you to live and work with them on a short-term project.
