There are many friends who get to know the work of TCV and become interested in volunteer work. We receive so many volunteer applications and therefore it is impossible to accommodate all these applicants. While we do appreciate and thank every offer of help, our general policy on volunteer work is based on the following:

• Volunteers are taken only if there is a need for it in TCV. Generally we have enough regular staff and additional requirement is not much.
• If there is any need, there will be more in specific field of specialization and can commit for a longer duration of stay with minimum of six months
• It is difficult to oblige volunteers wishing to come only for a short duration when the school academic session is on. This is more of a disruption to the classes/session with people coming and leaving in between.
• Considerations to Tibetans born/living/studying abroad having not much knowledge about Tibetan language/culture and having keen interest to come to TCV to learn is given on request depending on the applicants commitment, our conditions and availability of accommodation.

We have only a limited accommodation within the campus and volunteers may need to stay outside the campus if commitments made.
