No importa si tienes claro dónde quieres ir o si estás abierto a cualquier propuesta. En Tumaini ofrecemos orientación para encontrar el viaje solidario que mejor encaja con tu perfil, experiencia, disponibilidad e inquietudes. Te daremos toda la información ¡y ahí estaremos para responder a cualquier duda que tengas! Si hay algo que sea muy importante para ti (que haya otros/as voluntarios/as en el proyecto, que esté en una zona urbana, que tenga WIFI, etc.) dínoslo para que ofrecerte la mejor opción para ti.
Most NGOs are open all year round, so you decide when to volunteer. However, your volunteering must last for the minimum time required for each project (usually two weeks). We will also let you know if there are any other requirements you need to meet. We will do our best to make your trip the experience of a lifetime.
Once you've decided on the project you want to collaborate with, it's time to buy your ticket! Once you have it and know the exact dates of your volunteering, let us know! Now it's time to organise your trip to make the most of it.
Es el momento de reservar tu plaza y alojamiento en la ONG. Para ello, te pediremos que rellenes un formulario y hagas un ingreso de 350 € para formalizar tu reserva. El resto del importe se paga directamente a la ONG local (en la mayoría de los casos se hace cuando llegas al destino).
Una vez reservada la plaza, te tocará hacer las gestiones del viaje: visado, vacunas, seguro, etc. En Tumaini te asesoraremos para que inviertas menos tiempo en papeleos y más tiempo en informarte sobre el país que vas a visitar. También tendrás que hacer el curso de formación de Tumaini, imprescindible para conocer la realidad que vas a visitar, sacarle partido a la experiencia y viajar de forma más responsable.
Whenever possible, Tumaini will put you in contact with a person who has already travelled to the project so that you can ask them anything you need. We are also available for any questions you may have. Also, if you are travelling alone and there is another person who will be travelling on similar dates, we can put you in contact to prepare the experience together.
What to pack? What transport is available? Places to visit? What is the food like on the project? If you have any questions, we'll be happy to help you 🙂
Once you are on the ground, you will be assisted by a local coordinator. If you request it, you will also be picked up at the airport (available in almost all projects). At Tumaini, we will be looking forward to your arrival and your stay. If you have any problems or doubts about your volunteering, in addition to your local coordinator, you can contact us and we will help you in any way we can.
After your solidarity trip we will ask you to fill in a short survey to find out how your experience went. Whenever necessary, we will hold an evaluation meeting or call to hear your feedback and come up with ideas to improve the experience.
And... you will be part of the Tumaini family! If you want, you can take part in solidarity events, meetings with volunteers, talks about international volunteering, etc.
What are you going to do now that you have been bitten by the solidarity bug? We encourage you to continue working for a better world wherever you are and, of course, whenever you travel, to do so in a responsible and supportive way.
Because a journey of solidarity... never ends!
