Hi Karen,

Nothing concrete for you but i did run accross a site where they report on some projects they do throughout the region

try:

http://www.magna.com.au/~pacedge/permaculture/

or even see if Seed Savers have anything coming up in that region or whether they can put you onto any contacts where they have started projects in the region! They run training courses for volunteer work overseas.

http://seedsavers.net/

Worth a go anyways.... what sort of thing were you looking at doing specifically?

thanks chook nut. i'll follow that link and see what i can find. particularly i'd like to work on projects where they're installing water sanitation systems. my interest is in low income communities, so i'd like practical experience with inexpensive setups, using easily available materials. i'm also looking into IVP short term workcamps. cheers. karen.
