Our methodology is based on the idea of Responsible Volunteerism. This means that volunteers are much more than free labor for social organizations; responsible volunteerism creates mutually beneficial value for both the volunteer and organization. In the short term, responsible volunteering results in a network of involved and engaged citizens; in the long term, it often acts as the platform from which is created a lasting commitment with the social sector. It also is a first step towards a rich and lasting friendship between volunteers and their host organizations.
While in Argentina, volunteers also have certain responsibilties which include:
- To provide his/her services freely and for purely altruistic purposes, with no intention of remuneration.
- Volunteer for a minimum of one month in the host organization.
- If, due to unforeseen circumstances such as illness or a change in travel plans, a participant is unable to fulfill his or her commitment on any given day, he or she MUST let an InsightArgentina representative know 24 hours in advance.
- An International Emergency Insurance, or insurance that covers program participants in case of an emergency during their time abroad only, is required. Many insurance plans already include this; program participants should check with their providers before purchasing a new plan. InsightArgentina can provide suggestions for International Emergency Insurance providers if needed.
- Sign a contract with HelpArgentina before starting his/her Volunteer Program, which states the things described above.
