    Descrição

    We are a grassroots non-profit organization dedicated to supporting Venezuelan refugees (caminantes) and vulnerable members of the local community in Pamplona. Along the caminantes' route, we collaborate with shelters to provide mobile aid, food, and essential information to those on the move. In Pamplona itself, we work on community-based projects—some in partnership with local foundations—to address the needs of those most at risk.

    Our presence in Colombia is a direct response to a humanitarian crisis. As the situation is often in flux, we have taken on a variety of projects as they have arisen. Every day is different and requires flexibility as tasks may vary. Day to day responsibilities are organized by our international coordinators.

    We are looking for committed volunteers to help keep our projects running. A minimum stay of three weeks is required. Our team typically includes 10 to 15 international volunteers, alongside dedicated Colombian and Venezuelan staff.

    Pamplona is a vibrant university town nestled in the mountains. It’s known for its youthful energy, safety, and charm. The town center is filled with cozy cafés, and the surrounding mountains offer beautiful opportunities for hiking and exploration.

    Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

    As you are working with caminantes, the work can be emotionally challenging. You will see difficult situations first hand. But, you get to be part of a close knit team that is helping people, which is very rewarding. You will be working with people who do not speak English, so Spanish language skills are very useful, but not essential.

  • Ajuda

    Ajuda

    Every day is busy. Volunteers take part in a wide range of activities, often beginning early in the morning and continuing into the evening. On average, we ask volunteers to contribute between 4 to 6 hours per day, 25 hours per week in total.

    At shelters supporting Venezuelan migrants, volunteers help with cleaning, cooking, serving meals, leading children's activities, providing information to caminantes and assisting in our first aid clinic. Volunteers also join mobile aid trips, delivering food and essential supplies to caminantes along the highway.

    Alongside projects that serve the migrant population, volunteers participate in a variety of community projects. These include English lessons, creative workshops, and nutrition programmes in community centers in Pamplona’s vulnerable neighborhoods.

    We encourage volunteers to apply their skills and experiences to the projects. Teaching experience and creative skills are valuable assets for community projects. In the shelters, we particularly need volunteers with medical training to help run our first aid clinic. A working knowledge of Spanish is helpful but not a requirement. Overall, we encourage anyone who is interested in our projects to apply!

  • Acomodação

    Acomodação

    We have a volunteer house with six bedrooms and 2-4 beds in each room. There is internet and laundry in the house, two fully-equipped kitchens, and 2 1/2 bathrooms. We also have a rooftop where you can work out or relax. We receive groceries for the house once a week. Food is shared, but volunteers are responsible for cooking their own meals.

    Volunteers cover the cost of their food, which is 37,000 COP per day (about 8-9 USD). Payments are collected at the end of every month or at the end of your stay.

    Additionally, we have a small studio apartment available for couples or families. There is an additional cost associated with that apartment, and it is not always available, but you can check in with us. That studio has one large bed, one set of bunk beds, and a bathroom and shower.

    Algo mais...

    I first began refugee work in Lebanon in 2016, and have also spent time on Lesvos, a Greek island with thousands of refugees. The situation in Colombia is dire and has received very little international aid. We are doing everything we can to raise awareness and bring support to the desperate Venezuelan population that is fleeing their country.

    We have had a number of digital nomads volunteer with us, just keep in mind that while with us, your priority must be refugee projects. If your work is flexible and you are able to do it around projects, we'd love to have you join us! There is decent internet at the volunteer house, and a number of nice cafes with internet in town.
