From 1^st-5th April 2019, FSL-India hosted 6 Long-Term Volunteers from Germany and Spain. For this orientation, FSL-India organised different events for the exchange of ICL (Inter-Cultural Learning).

The sessions conducted were an ‘Indian’ welcome, introduction to FSL-India, local language class, practical information, Indian lifestyle, safety and project information, volunteer’s role and responsibilities.
