The Organising Committee for Expo 2023 Doha is to soon announce the launch of the Expo 2023 Doha Volunteer Programme.
The programme invites all citizens and residents who are 18 years old or older to share their skills, passion, and enthusiasm towards raising awareness about desertification, focusing on this year's theme of ''Green Desert, Better Environment'' and contributing to the successful hosting of Expo 2023 Doha.
The Expo 2023 Doha Volunteer Journey offers an inclusive experience for 2,200 volunteers, beginning with a streamlined application and onboarding process. Through careful selection, successful candidates are allocated roles matching their unique skill set and preferences.
These roles provide a unique opportunity to engage across numerous aspects of the event, including visitor services, cultural activities, ceremonies and more. This ensures a seamless and unforgettable experience for the 3mn visitors expected to attend the Expo 2023 Doha.
As an unpaid activity, the programme offers volunteers an opportunity to receive comprehensive training, ongoing guidance support, make connections and contribute to a rewarding global conversation. Selected candidates will be stationed at Al-Bidda Park, the heart of Expo 2023 Doha's activities, which will be held from October 2nd, 2023, to March 28th, 2024.
Potential candidates are expected to be adaptable, work well in a team and maintain a positive attitude. Previous volunteer experience is not a requirement – the programme welcomes all who meet the criteria and share the vision.
"Volunteering for Expo 2023 Doha is a great way to promote unity, serve your community, and gain invaluable experiences. You will play a vital role on a global scale, working alongside influential participants from over 80 countries in the horticulture and environmental sector," a press statement from the organiser said.
As a token of appreciation, volunteers will receive exclusive items and will have access to social and cultural events that are exclusively designed for the volunteer team. These events aim to promote unity and celebrate diversity – creating lifelong friendships and memories.
"Interested individuals are encouraged to apply via our website, register, and complete the volunteer application, thereby becoming part of the first international horticultural exposition in the Middle East and North Africa region," the statement added.
