Hi, friends!

Did you see today's announcement about the Young Talent Pipeline 2023? Do you want to be one of the 12 specialists to volunteer in Kenya? Do you have thoughts about any of the roles? Jot them down here and we'll get a discussion going. Wouldn't it be so cool if one of OUR OLS members became one of the volunteers?!

Hello Iya,

I hope you are having a great time.
I am really sorry that I have missed the whole email thread and today only I got to know that I got an email and still there is a chance to get connected. No excuses but I am new to these things and perhaps that could be the reason I missed to stay in touch. I am writing to you to request apology for my delay and irresponsibility and seeking your advice on how to get myself on board with this opportunitiy.

Looking forward to hear back from you.

Until then, have a wonderful time for you

Ruchindra

Hi Ruchindra!!

You don't have to apologize at all and you have not been irresponsible!! I will answer all of your questions and do my best to give you information that will help you. The reply will be in two parts.


Part 1

It's not your fault that you didn't see this discussion thread as the only way to be notified of forum threads is if you have replied to a discussion. Now that you have, you should get notifications anytime someone responds to this discussion.

Every day, an email with the Daily Digest is sent to your personal email account about what has happened in the English Community. If you’re not part of any forum discussions, the only item you would get in the Digest would be the Announcements. Have you received those emails?

Also, it is possible that the Daily Digest emails that are sent out daily did not go to your inbox in your personal email account, but instead to your SPAM folder. Nevertheless, don't worry. I have some tips that will help you to stay informed on all updates related to the OLS English community!

To ensure that you receive this reply, I will also send you a private message. Private messages should go directly to your personal email account.

By the way, how did you discover this post about volunteering in Kenya?

 

Part 2

Now, to answer you about the UN Volunteer Program.

Unfortunately, the deadline already passed. It was the 15 May 2023.

But don’t worry! You can contact them directly to get information about upcoming opportunities:

Also, here’s an announcement from a few months ago about finding internships:

Announcement - Internships & Idioms about a Traineeship Program from Erasmus Intern. Once you’re at Erasmus Intern, you can create your FREE account and find many opportunities in various countries.

If I find any other information, I will share it with you. For now, I hope the above information will help you get started. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I am always happy to help!

Also, where are you now and are you currently in a mobility program?

Wishing you a great day!

Iya
