Volunteer: To find out more about how you can help us in practical ways
The IDC is always looking for volunteers to assist us in our vital work. Volunteers can work whenever they have time, from anywhere, as long as they have access to the Internet. The IDC is also seeking language volunteers to translate documents on an occasional basis via e-mail, primarily to/from French, Spanish and Arabic.
If you are interested in volunteering your time for the IDC, please send an e-mail to the Volunteer Coordinator at info@idcoalition.org expressing your interest and reason for volunteering, as well as an up-to-date CV.
