Teaching and construction support for an education center in Siem Reap.
Siem Reap is the place of the famous heritage site Angkor Wat - the largest religious monument in the world. There are also natural attraction sites in the area such as Kulen national park, Tonle Sap lake, and more.
We welcome all motivated volunteers to join us in making change in this community, as well as learn a great deal from the community.
The volunteers will work with an education center which aims at providing free alternative education for children and teenagers in order to develop their self-confidence, support them in achieving their dreams for the future, and making education their first priority. At the same time, children and teenagers are given a chance to learn languages, computer, and to have access to global education/information through internet and a library.
Volunteers will work on organizing different workshops, training and activities to support students' learning and development. Volunteers will also teach English to students and join construction activities to renovate classrooms, beautify the campus, and build a new building for the education center's office, library, and computer room.

The project takes place in the rural area of Songkhla province, Southern Thailand in the small village called Ban Ton San (Ban in Thai means “village”). The main occupation of the locals is rubber plantation and most of the villagers are Buddhists. The life in the village revolves around Community Living, Learning by Doing and Cultural Diversity.
The volunteers will be involved in different activities supporting the community:
• English teaching – Creative teaching through games, songs, storytelling, art or performance, to encourage local people to speak English and get a feel of different cultures.
• Renovation – The Community and learning center in the village needs some renovation and maintenance. The volunteers will clean the rooms and meeting area, and will continue the construction and painting work started by previous groups. Local villagers will teach the volunteers and will help with the construction. This is a good opportunity to learn the Thai way of building. Also, the volunteers can make chairs for the center.
• Kitchen garden – The volunteers will work in the small kitchen garden, doing some renovation and planting vegetables.
Besides the main tasks, an important part of the project is the cultural exchange, learning and sharing with the local people. The volunteers will be visiting them to chat and do activities together. This will be an enriching experience for all.
Project dates: June 12 - June 24, 2023

The volunteers will be working again with the Reykjavík municipality in two of the main skiing and recreational areas in the capital region of Iceland, Bláfjöll (or the Blue Mountains) and Skálafell.
In Skálafell, the ski slopes are turned into a Bike park during summertime and mountain bike enthusiasts can nourish their passion. The main tasks will include renovation and maintenance work on the bike trails; mainly raking and scraping them up. Other possible tasks may be related to general cleaning of the area.
In the Blue Mountains, the main tasks will be maintaining the slopes and preparing them for the next ski season. The city and a few sports associations run lodges and mountain huts there and they might also need some renovation work, such as painting and/or cleaning.
The working plan is flexible and it will depend on the needs of our local host. Volunteers need to be motivated to work mainly outdoors on physical jobs and under changing weather conditions.
The project happens around the summer solstice, when the sun hardly sets and the nights are almost as bright as the days. The bright nights are magical and staying awake enjoying the surroundings is a unique experience. During the time of the project, participants will have the opportunity to experience the midnight sun as there are 24 hours of light even if the sun sets for shorts periods of time.

In this project, participants can learn about and share their love for photography and global and local environmental issues. If you are interested in topics such as climate change, waste management, animal protection and sustainability, and you also love taking photographs or want to develop your photography skills, then this project is for you!
While developing your artistic and technical photography skills, you will also be focusing on environmental and sustainability issues through non-formal activities such as workshops, discussions, presentations and visits facilitated by the project coordinators. One of our aims is to help create more environmentally aware consumers and travellers!
You will visit local projects focused on the environment and conservation. These may include hands-on activities or guided visits. Some examples include outdoor cleanup tasks, a community dinner or a visit to a recycling centre, a geothermal power plant, a museum or exhibition. Some of these activities are dependent on conditions such as weather, pandemic-related restrictions, as well as availability of our partners.
You will also have time to put the theory about photography into practice, walking around and exploring the city. At the end of the project, the best photographs from each participant are selected for an online exhibition. Participants should bring their own digital cameras, lenses, tripods and laptops if possible.
The program combines learning, sharing, hands-on activities, getting to know Iceland, its culture, having fun, exploring the capital city and some stunning nature attractions in the Golden Circle excursion or other excursions. Participants should prepare to share environmental issues from their countries and should be ready to spend time outdoors walking medium distances during activities and sightseeing.
In this project, we will organize a Night photography and Aurora hunting (Northern lights) workshop in the countryside in the close vicinity of Reykjavík. This will take place during late evening and possibly into the night. The Northern lights are a natural phenomenon depending on solar activity and meteorological conditions; we cannot guarantee you will see the Northern lights, but the night photography workshop will be organised anyway.

Volunteer Probono Help Please. Just to get items back
Hi there. I am having difficulty retrieving items from a local shoe repair store (cobler).
I DO NOT OWE ANY MONEY as the job was never started. I just want my items back so I can move on.I feel the owner is playing a "CONTROL GAME".
The ower has had my items for over a year and a half. Everytime I ask when I can get my items back, the owner says when they can go to their storage to pick up.
They repeatedly tell me to call them.
They have a store number and cell number which they never answer when I call.I have tried to balance asking for the items back not to badger the owner.
They are claiming and twisting that I have disappeared multiple times and thats not the case. I could not ask every week for my items to be returned as this just annoys the owner more.I just need someone to legally contact them to get my items back.
PLEASE, I am on assistance and working towards disability so I am struggling as is.It is only a few meaningful items.

Our Glorious Summer is a documentary project about the short-lived and much loved Canadian summers, as experienced by the residents of the country's largest city. Winters in Toronto can be hard to bear, but in the summer the city is a sweeter, gentler and brighter place. It's a green, lush and vibrant playground. The summers are so endearing and memorable that when August comes, when the temperatures start to drop, and the sun sets earlier, it can feel like the end of a very long and glorious party. There is even a palpable sense of mourning in the populace, as we shift from the season of life, growth and vitality to the decay and primitive hazards of fall and winter.
The short film documents the last few golden weeks of summer in Toronto, and will utilise the personal anecdotes and experiences of Torontonians, as they recount the significance of the summer in the Canadian psyche, and tell stories of how the transition out of summer impacts them.
If you are a Toronto resident and would you'd like to participate in the project; please upload an brief audio recording describing how you feel about the end of summer to this google form (https://forms.gle/YtXdkMkkyYtPRRTw7). If your clip is selected, you will be contacted with further details.

Can COVID-19 infection lead to long-term effects in the brain? To help us find the answer, we are looking for participants previously infected with COVID-19, as well as participants who have never had COVID-19. Information from this study may reveal why some people experience long-term symptoms after COVID-19 infection, which may lead to better treatment plans to aid in recovery.
We are looking for individuals who are at least 18 years of age and who have been infected with COVID-19 in the past 6 months.
Participation will include COVID-19 screening tests, two brain scans (positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and bloodwork. Participants will also complete cognitive assessments.
The study involves 4 visits. The total time commitment is about 14 hours. You will be compensated for your time.
Visit 1: Screening (~ 3 hours)
Visit 2: Cognitive assessments (~ 3 hours)
Visit 3: Blood collection, clinical assessment, and MRI & PET Scans (~ 5 hours)
Visit 4: Blood collection and clinical & cognitive assessments (~ 3 hours)To learn more or ask about joining our study, contact us at:

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is one of the most widespread types of anxiety disorder. SAD begins early in life and affects 2.5 million Canadians in one year. It can result in a variety of co-occurring conditions such as depression and substance use disorder. To better understand the causes of SAD, it is important to further investigate the brain biology of SAD, and develop new and effective treatments.
For this study, we are looking for individuals aged 18 to 40 years old who currently experience social anxiety disorder. We will use brain imaging techniques, including PET (positron emission tomography) and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scans to observe and study whether an important brain network, the endocannabinoid system, contributes to SAD. This will help us learn more about the biological mechanisms of this condition and also potentially guide development of new treatment options.
The study includes:
1. A pre-screening phone call (approximately 25 minutes)
2. A screening assessment visit (approximately 4 hours)
3. One MRI scan (approximately 2 hours)
4. One PET scan (approximately 4 hours)
5. Cognitive tests (approximately 2 hours)
6. Take home questionnaires (approximately 1 hour)To be eligible, volunteers must meet the following criteria:
• be 18 - 40 years old
• experience extreme shyness or anxiety in social settings / in front of others
• no current substance use disorders
• no blood clotting disorder or use of anticoagulant medication
• no unstable medical condition
• no neurological illness (seizures, epilepsy) or head trauma
• no metal implants in body
• not pregnant / breastfeeding
• not claustrophobic
• not exposed to radiation in the past 12 months exceeding the permissible limit for subjects participating in researchVolunteers will receive compensation for time, including transportation and meals.
