Introduction to the Volunteer Program
Our volunteer program at Hutan Subur plays a crucial role in
conservation and local empowerment on the border of the Gunung Leseur National
Park. We aim to promote environmental conservation; sustainable farming practises,
education, and sustainable waste management practices.
Expectations from Volunteers
We expect volunteers to actively participate in assigned
tasks, follow instructions, and contribute to a positive and inclusive
environment. They should demonstrate reliability, flexibility, and a
willingness to learn.
What Volunteers Can Expect
Volunteers can expect a rewarding experience where they can
make a meaningful impact. We provide opportunities for personal and
professional growth, cultural exchange, and the chance to immerse themselves in
the natural beauty of Hutan Subur. Basic accommodations and meals are provided
during the volunteer period.
Special Equipment for Volunteers
While basic equipment and supplies will be provided,
volunteers are encouraged to bring personal items such as comfortable clothing,
sturdy shoes, and toiletries. Any specific requirements will be communicated
prior to their arrival.
Specific tasks
One of the main tasks at the guest house for our coordinator
will be to educate and support our staff to provide high quality service at our
guest house for both guests and volunteers.
Your education and support may include educating our staff
on ways to provide a high quality of service to our guest and volunteers. The volunteer
coordinator may support our staff in creating engaging timetables, maintaining
a cleaning schedule ensuring that tasks around the guest house are completed and
a high standard of guest service is maintained including cleanliness of the
guest house and food preparation.
The volunteer coordinator and guest house manager also have
the opportunity to create links and form relationships with local farmers in the
area, other NGOs, businesses and services as well as other activities.
