Get involved


If you want to collaborate with us, to specialize your studying career or to be involved in actions of social and community development, the UPD offers different opportunities:

1. For students and recent graduates:

The UPD offers courses and practices to specialise in Community Planning and Development. Depending on your specialization in the university we offer practices in development projects in the areas of Peace and Human Rights, Environment, Sustainable Development and Indigenous Affairs. Before taking part in project practices (thr duration depends on the type of projects) students will participate in the first level course in Community Planning and Development of the duration of 90 Hours (2 months). After completing the course, students will be able to participate in different tasks in the development projects, to learn how the plans are implemented and to work with the community.

To participate you can contact us by sending a motivational letter and your resume to:

2. For volunteer professionals:

If you are a professional and want to be a volunteer on our projects you can get involved in one of our community actions, as long as your specialization and experience is appropriate to the specific needs of the project. The UPD is responsible for organizing the necessary courtesy VISA documents to participate in the project activities (in the case of foreign professionals), to find suitable housing for the stay and to provide all necessary information where to stay in the places of study and work.
