*Please note: this is a non-paid job*
Are you a doctor or nurse and do you want to use your expertise to help people in need? Then come join our medical team on Lesvos as a volunteer. Together with our MHPSS team, you will contribute to humane (emergency) care from our mobile clinic in the reception centre Mavrovouni.
Boat Refugee Foundation provides medical and psychosocial (emergency) aid and stands up for the rights of people seeking refuge. We take action where systems become inhumane and compassion is lost. Since 2015, we have been working in various locations on the borders of Europe, including on the Greek island of Lesvos.
As a volunteer, you will work in our medical team, which largely consists of professional voluntary nurses, doctors and interpreters, who live in the camp themselves. They play an indispensable role in our team.
We provide (emergency) care from our mobile clinic in the camp, seven days a week – evening shifts during weekdays and on the weekends also during the day. The complaints we see vary from flu symptoms to serious physical or psychological complaints.
We are currently looking for:
Boat Refugee Foundation’s existence depends on the many volunteers and donors, without which we’d not be able to do our job. Our financial means are mostly spent on emergency care. That is why we ask all volunteers to pay for their travel and stay. We have a volunteer house on Lesvos where you can stay for 10 euros a night. After one month you can stay here for free.
