Evaluation of Humanitarian Organizations in France

Abstract

Many visitors to France are interested in volunteering in the country in order to connect with the Francophone culture, while benefiting the community. However, here has never been guide written for Anglophones to volunteer France. The study of the humanitarian organizations, Secours Populaire and Willing Workers on Organic Farms (WWOOF) during 2010--‐2011 in southern France will be incorporated into a guide, being written by Ada Giusti PhD, which will provide information about the volunteer opportunities within the Francophone world. The study of these two organizations revealed the requirements, expectations of volunteers, and the effectiveness of their programs in the community. The personal responses from volunteers, directors, and the community will be included in the guide to allow future volunteers to make informed decisions about each organization.
