In the month of August, FSL-India hosted 39 Long-Term Volunteers from Germany, from 5th-10th. For this orientation, our LTV team organised different events for the exchange of ICL (Inter-Cultural Learning).

The sessions conducted on diverse topics like ‘Indian’ welcome, introduction to FSL-India, local language class, practical information, Indian lifestyle, safety and project information, each volunteer’s role and responsibilities.

It was observed that the participants were interested to know about Indian culture and practices. The volunteers actively participated in the orientation.
