BE VOLUNTEER IN ASIKUQ ANTINAKUNA NGO.
What means a volunteering service for us?
Our program is located in the city of Cajamarca, the most important of the northern highlands of Peru, located at 2750 meters above sea level on the eastern slopes of the Andes, in an Inter-Andean valley. Cajamarca was considered one of the most important metropolis of the Inca empire. Where was the scene of one of the most important events in Latin American history and even of universal history : The meeting of Two Worlds.
This Volunteer program offers stays from 03 months, 06 months, 12 months or determined by the volunteers and the sending organization. A volunteer (man or woman) from 18 years and no age limit, supports us in one of the work areas: poverty, social inequality, education, public health, gender equality, cultural identity, Quechua language, natural resources and the environment. Volunteer work, is funded by the sending organization , maybe independent or part of government of the origin country, prior agreement with the partner organization.
The goals and impacts of the volunteer program?
We work so that the strong social commitment of volunteers, is aimed at achieving mutual learning based on direct experiences in rural and marginal urban realities, where mainly we foster environments of peace and respect committed to integral development. Thereby we seek to show and spread the true socio-economic reality of our region, involving volunteers in projects that we manage.
We provide unwavering support for the Volunteer program, from a motivating and supportive position to understand that cultures have different ways of thinking and acting. To do so consistently we provide support in the language and the Peruvian culture, as we believe that these elements are essential for adaptation and full development of the Volunteer.
We develop our post-volunteer program supporting our ex volunteers to continue managing social development project anywhere in our region, supported by their sending organizations and involved governmental entities.
With this program we mainly seek the global twinning of involved organizations in social development, strategic alliances,that seek to share successful experiences and work together in social development projects to benefit vulnerable groups in Latin America.
