The work will take place in the office of MdM in Tindouf, both in the office we have in the Protocol and in the one located in the Ministry of Health. The volunteer will stay in the house that MdM has in the Protocol. This will be paid for the duration of the volunteer placement and will cover any movement necessary to ensure the well-being of the volunteer. The atmosphere in the Protocol is calm. However, movement outside the Protocol is limited and will be done in an official MdM car. The volunteer will receive a monthly subsistence allowance of 522 € to cover food and other expenses.
