Volunteering

Este proyecto, en el que CIFAL Málaga – UNITAR ha puesto su mayor esfuerzo, comenzó a principios de 2023, donde miles de personas participaron en la conservación y mejora de espacios naturales, realizando trabajos de plantación y mantenimiento de árboles autóctonos en Sierra Bermeja (Málaga). Si quieres ser uno de los Cascos Verdes, solo tienes que inscribirte como voluntario aquí, y en cuanto iniciemos una nueva fase de reforestación, te contactaremos.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is the working day?

It will take place in the morning or afternoon (depending on the needs of the group) and will last approximately 3 to 4 hours. The schedule will be provided to the volunteers at least one week in advance for each of the days that will take place during the reforestation project.

Does the project take care of transportation for the day or does each volunteer go on his or her own?

In the case of the participation of groups of school children who do not have school transportation, the management of transportation to the reforestation area will be agreed upon. In the case of the participation of a group of workers, the company for which they work will be in charge of transport management. In the case of participation of individual volunteers, each volunteer can organize their own transportation to the meeting point, or in certain cases and depending on the area, the organization will have buses available.

Is food provided to volunteers by the Green Helmets?

Yes, fruit will be offered to volunteers during the day, but it is still advisable to bring some of your own food.

Is it possible to bring pets?

No, for security and logistical reasons, pets are not allowed to attend the Green Helmets volunteer days, unless they are assistance dogs or are expressly permitted to attend by the event management.

Are the volunteers trained?

Yes, before starting the volunteer day, a basic training on reforestation and environmental conservation will be conducted.

How many places are there for each volunteer day?

The number of places available for each volunteer day may vary depending on the area, the day and the number of seedlings available. Interested volunteers will be informed of the number of places available at least one week before each day.

Is experience required to participate in the private volunteer days?

No previous experience is necessary to participate in the Green Helmets volunteer days. The workshops are designed so that anyone can participate, regardless of their level of experience or knowledge in reforestation and environmental conservation. At all times there will be monitors controlling each of the activities to make the work easier for the volunteers.
