Thank you for your interest!
Since 2019, Selvatorium has become a basic education program for over 30 children and we do not have space at the moment to host volunteers during the first half of 2023. We hope to be able to offer housing by July 2023. For the moment we can only welcome volunteers or interns that have their own housing in the town Palomino (an hour away by foot) or if you wish to lend us a helping hand from far away.
In this section of our Selvatorium website you will find updated information for volunteers and interns:
We are looking for people whom could help us with the development of projects related to Selvatorium, our local community and especially our educational project.
We need help with:
- Finding grants.
- Promotion of our work online, networking , public relations.
- Carpentry
- Cooking
- Health teachers for our students (nutrition, allopathic medicine, first aid, alternative medicine etc.)
- The design of a contextualized learning program and workbooks that takes into account the alternative teaching method we are using as well as the cultural and environmental aspects of our territory.
- Making DIY portable solar lamps.
- Pumping water systems.
- Food transformation.
