What is the minimum time commitment for volunteer work in Dharamshala?
This depends on the particular volunteer position. All of DEVI’s positions require a commitment of at least six months. There are a few volunteer opportunities with other agencies in Dharamshala where it is possible to volunteer for as little as one day, such as environmental work for the Tibetan Welfare Office and teaching English at the Yong Ling School. Most other volunteer positions in the Dharamshala area require at least a six-month minimum commitment, and many require as much as a year or more. If the main purpose of your visit to Dharamshala is for volunteering or you really want to make a difference, plan to stay at least six months if not a year or longer.
