Are you looking for a volunteer activity for the summer? Do you live in Finland? Are you passionate about camp life and cooking for groups? Join the team of the on-arrival training camp!<\/p>\n

Maailmanvaihto is organising an on-arrival training camp from the 13th to the 19th of August 2025<\/strong>\u00a0for young people coming to Finland from abroad as volunteers. The camp will be held at Antaverkka camp center in Yl\u00f6j\u00e4rvi<\/strong>. We are now looking for enthusiastic kitchen team members to join us. The kitchen team prepares daily meals for the participants.<\/p>\n

At this Maailmanvaihto training camp, you will get to know volunteers from all over the world and see how the camp is built. Intercultural learning and conflict resolution are key themes of the camp. We will also learn about the cultures and society of Finland. The language used at the camp is English.<\/p>\n

We will provide bus transport to the camp from Helsinki. For camp team members arriving from other parts of Finland, we will reimburse the cost of travel by the cheapest public transport. The camp will be organised by Maailmanvaihto\u2019s Programme Coordinator, the office team volunteers and interns, 2\u20133 volunteer camp instructors, the kitchen team leader, and 4\u20135 kitchen team members. The tasks of the kitchen team members at the camp are voluntary activities and a certificate will be issued if desired.<\/p>\n

We are looking for committed individuals who share the values and mission of Maailmanvaihto. Our values are global responsibility, intercultural learning, and equality. Caring and inclusivity, reliability and responsibility, and transparency are important principles in our work. Read more about the operating principles of Maailmanvaihto.<\/a><\/p>\n

We try to organise a planning and briefing meeting for kitchen team members before the camp. The kitchen leader informs the team members about practical matters. The camp follows Maailmanvaihto\u2019s guidelines for safer spaces.<\/a><\/p>\n

Becoming a kitchen team member<\/strong><\/p>\n

We expect kitchen team members to have basic cooking skills, but no specific chef skills are required. The most important things are taking responsibility and having the motivation to cook for a large group over several days.<\/p>\n
