Financial Package

Financial support is available for AWBC’s own placements and for joint placements with AUF.

AWBC’s Financial Package

AWBC will provide the following financial aid for volunteers:

Transportation, vaccinations, visa, health, travel, and liability insurance, and living expenses.

AWBC asks the host institution to provide accommodations.  If it is not able to do so, AWBC will provide a stipend to defray this expense.

AWBC welcomes volunteers for projects making charitable donations equivalent to some of their expenses in return for a tax receipt. If you wish to consider this alternative, we would be happy to discuss it with you.  Please contact Steven Davis at sdavis ( at ) awbc-usfc ( dot ) org

AUF’s Financial Package

This varies with the type of AUF programme.

For faculty invited by a university in the developing world it includes:

For retired faculty members, it includes the items above, except for the living allowance, which is extended only to retired faculty who are originally from a developing country.

For faculty member from a developing country, AUF gives a grant up to a maximum of 4000 € to cover expenses.

For AWBC/AUF, joint placements AWBC will arrange for the local institution to pay a stipend and to provide housing, if it is possible for it to do so.
