Dear Volunteers, This is your chance to choose the one voluntary engagement you like from a handful offered by the best upcoming social enterprises in India. What’s more - iVolunteer brings you this opportunity for free (normal registration fee for the same is Rs 6,500) ‘Unconvention 2011’, India's premier Innovation & Social Entrepreneurship conference, held by Villgro on 2-3rd Dec, Chennai. Visit www.unconvention.co.in for more information. iVolunteer is the Session Partner on Volunteering. iVolunteer has designed a special ‘Volunteer Speed Dating’ session (2 Dec, 2 - 5:30 pm). Some of the most promising social enterprises will be pitching their volunteer positions at the session. And you, the volunteer, get to choose what fits you best. Through the session, you can: ● interact with these organisations, ● understand their volunteers requirements, and ● explore your specific engagement. Volunteers and organisations also get to identify and workout solutions to some of the most common issues related to volunteer engagement. You can also join us for the morning panel discussion on ‘Volunteering - the jargon busted’ (2 Dec, 11.30-12.30 am). The panel will be moderated by iVolunteer co-Founder & Director, Mr Shalabh Sahai. Joining us on the panel are a CSR lead from an MNC, a senior corporate professional in avatar of a star volunteer, an eminent NGO head and regional head of iVolunteer who connects them all. Each panelist will the volunteering under-currents and related jargons from their industry and experience.
