You will also be part of Movimiento por la Paz, a pacifist, feminist and anti-racist organisation with over 40 years’ experience fighting for a fairer world. The volunteer will work 30 to 38 hours per week, tailored to the organisation’s needs, and will receive ongoing support and training. The main activities will take place in Quetzaltenango, with possible travel to nearby communities where projects are being implemented.
