2 2 SHORT TERM VOLUNTEERING (STV)/ WORKCAMPS Short Term Volunteering (STV) also called as workcamp is an international volunteering program where volunteers stay 1 3 weeks for the project. Volunteers work in teams. There are 5-25 for volunteers volunteering together in one workcamp. As IIWC collaborates workcamps and long term volunteering to achieve each project goals, therefore, all workcamp project sites are the IIWC Long & Middle term Volunteering (LMTV) project sites as well. While LMTV projects are open the whole year, IIWC workcamps are organized seasonal (winter, spring, and summer). The workcamp volunteers are expected to be team players, be able and enjoy exploring ideas especially on the implementing part of the project. Two campleaders (or one for small group) are volunteering together in the workcamp. The are volunteers who are selected, trained, and mandated several responsibilities to facilitate and lead the workcamps. However, the successful of a workcamp is determined by the team work. Volunteer will stay in a camp site mostly located in the project site, in collaboration with partners or local communities with the main purpose of exchanging experiences, culture, mutual benefit between the relevant parties. Workcamp is mostly a euphoria event. International volunteers will become stars for the locals as most of Indonesian people are interested to new things/people including foreigners. This way, IIWC takes this opportunity to promote and raising awareness of issues addressed in the workcamps towards specific groups such as local mothers, fathers, students or just public in general. Workcamp is aimed at giving opportunity for international and local volunteers who would like to be involved in the action of IIWC international voluntary service (IVS) projects in seasonal basis.

3 3 The objectives are: 1. To exchange experience and culture, to provide opportunities for volunteers to connect with and learn from the community through enjoyment of local life and exchange. 2. To promote change with remarkable and public action of voluntary works that improves the community. 3. Mutual benefit between the stakeholder, to empower not only the hosts, but also the local communities especially in depopulated areas. Please note that apart from usual participation as international volunteers in our workcamps, IIWC opens extra opportunities for those with special conditions: 1) Volunteers who have experiences in leading workcamps in any countries organized by any CCIVS NGO members have chance to join (for FREE): IIWC Workcamp leadership Training for Campleader (a mini workcamp concept 4-5 days) Further information about this point will be available in IIWC Calls for International Campleaders by the end of March. 2) Volunteers who repeat participation for the 2 nd time in IIWC workcamps, can be in the same year or two previous years, they will just to contribute 170 Euro as participation fee. 3) Volunteers who repeat participation for the 3 rd or more time in IIWC workcamps, can be in the same year or two previous years, they will just to contribute 165 Euro as participation fee. 4) In case of group/bilateral workcamp, one volunteer of that group must be selected as group leader and the group leader is FREE of Participation fee.
