    Om programmet

    Rabat, as the capital of Morocco, is home to a lot of street cats and dogs. Institutions and organizations that work in this field are very few, and the ones that do are fully packed and work with minimal resources. In this project, volunteers will work with one of the main animal shelters, if not the only one left, in the capital of Morocco. 
    Volunteers on this program will work together with local volunteers in different activities, including, but not limited to, training, feeding, grooming, and exercising animals. They also clean, disinfect, and repair the kennels and cages. They play with the animals, provide companionship, and observe behavioral changes that could indicate illness or injury.
    Also, volunteers help in receiving new dogs and cats to adapt in the center, helping people to choose a pet to take home from the animal center. Animals that volunteers will be responsible for are limited to dogs and cats.

    Tjenester på stedet

    - 50 %: to your host family to cover your accommodation and board. 
    - 20%: to projects materials and supervision where volunteers work. 
    - 30%: to cover the administrative and coordination work of the program. This also includes volunteers' pick up. 

    Afhentning i lufthavnen i Sale Airport

    After you have registered for the program, please book your flights to arrive at Rabat International Airport (RBA). Your airport pick-up is included in your Program Fee.

    When you arrive, you will be greeted at the airport by a member of the local team and transferred to your accommodation in Rabat or Sale (location will depend on proximity to your specific placement). Your accommodation is covered by your Program Fee and includes the night before your program orientation.

    If you are traveling in Morocco prior to your volunteer program, we can arrange for you to be picked up at the Rabat Ville Train Station in Rabat on the day before your program orientation.

    Indkvartering

    Our volunteers are accommodated in a homestay where you will live with a local family and other volunteers. These families receive money from your program fee for support, food, and board. It is exciting to stay with a family, as this is an opportunity to learn the Moroccan way of life, meet local people, eat local food, speak the local language (Darija: the Moroccan Arabic dialect) and engage in local customs and traditions. Volunteers may share a room with other volunteers but in many homestays, volunteers have their own rooms. Volunteers are recommended to bring their towel and toiletries. It is important to note that Moroccan homes have a shared living environment in which Sdaders (Moroccan couches) are used as a sitting and dining room.

    WiFi is available in all our homestays in Rabat. You can also get connected to the internet if you purchase a local SIM card with data for an unlocked mobile phone.

    Mad og drikkevarer

    Influenced by African, Arab, Moorish and Berber cuisines, Moroccan cooking blends Mediterranean fruits and vegetables with spices, typically imported. A typical Moroccan meal begins with a series of hot and/or cold salads, followed by a tagine (Moroccan stew) and bread is eaten with every meal. Lamb or chicken dishes are common, as couscous topped with meat and vegetables. The consumption of pork and alcohol are prohibited, as per Muslim dietary restrictions and drinking mint tea is a daily tradition. 

    Our volunteers in Morocco are served three meals per day (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). Running tap water is drinkable and bottled water is readily available in Morocco. Volunteers should budget approximately US$5 per week for mineral water (2 liters per day) if they want to stick to it. If you have any special dietary requirements, please let us know when you apply for the program so we can make arrangements for you.
