Volunteer opportunities in Oodnadatta available for young Indigenous people

Australian Volunteers International (AVI) are looking for four Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to work as volunteers in Oodnadatta, South Australia, during July and September in 2012.

These volunteer positions are available for Indigenous people aged 18-35 years old, and will provide the opportunity to work on a 10 week community development project alongside community members from Oodnadatta.

No previous experience is required to apply, and participation fees are fully sponsored for the length of the assignment.

Volunteers will have the opportunity to:

• become an important and highly regarded member of an Aboriginal community
• learn another language or dialect
• gain a better understanding of the customs and traditions of another Aboriginal group
• experience the extraordinary beauty of the Australian outback.

Expressions of interest should be directed to AVI.
