The Volunteer Programme is for women activists/students who have background of, and/or interest to work with, and be involved in, women's human rights issues on a regional level. It is open for women who want to contribute their time and skills in assisting programs and projects of the organization, while they gain exposure and experience working with a regional women's organization like APWLD.

The program may also be an opportunity for the volunteers to have links with different organizations within the network of APWLD, and learn new ways of working on women's issues on a regional level.

The volunteers will be assigned to a particular program or project suited to their set of skills and interest. Knowledge of English language is preferred.

APWLD has two classifications of volunteers:

Full Time Volunteers:
A full time volunteer is someone who wishes to spend at least three months with our organization. During her term with APWLD, she is expected to adhere to work schedules just like the staff. The secretariat will extend assistance in identifying home for her in Chiangmai for the duration of her volunteer work.

Drop-in Volunteer
This is for those who are living here in Chiangmai, as residents or as transients, and are willing to donate their time and skills to the organization. A drop-in volunteer may arrange a work schedule with the secretariat that would be both beneficial for her and APWLD.
