WWOOF Independents list now available |
Good news for wwoofers! Now when you join certain WWOOF National organisations, as a bonus, you get the list of hosts in many other countries (you can find them at www.wwoof.org/independents).
Effective from this October 2008, now when you are a member of WWOOF ESPAÑA we provide access to the site of WWOOF Independents with no extra cost.
To access the Independents list just login in this site, in your User Menu, at left, you will see the new menu option "Access WWOOF Independents List" clic on that and you will be redirected to the site (no more password nor hassle) Please note we only provide access to the list, but your rights as volunteer in España are not effective in any other country except in Spain. For example the insurance, etc in those countries is NOT valid. Basically when you leave Spain you have to follow the laws and requirements of those countries, we can´t help you outside Spain. ¡Buenas noticias para los wwoofers! Ahora al apuntarte como wwoofer en ciertas organizaciones WWOOF nacionales, automáticamente consigues el acceso al listado de otras granjas en los países que lleva la organización WWOOF Independents (www.wwwoof.org/independents).
Efectivo desde este Octubre de 2008, cuando se es voluntario/wwoofer en WWOOF España se tiene acceso a lista de WWOOF Independents sin coste adicional.
Para acceder a la lista de Independents, entra en esta web con tu usuario y contraseña y en User Menu, a la izquierda, verás una nueva opción de menú: "Access WWOOF Independents List", al hacer click ahí, serás redireccionado a su sitio web (sin más contraseñas ni preguntas). Por favor toma nota de que sólo damos acceso a su lista, pero tus derecho de voluntari@ en España no son efectivos fuera de este país. Por ejemplo el seguro no te cubre en granjas en el extranjero, etc. En la práctica, una vez que sales de España debes de seguir las leyes y requerimientos en esos países, nuestra organización no te puede ayudar fuera de España. |

Undesirable offers to Hosts |
|
Unfortunately an increasing number of emails are arriving to the Organisation as well as to hosts that are completely outside WWOOF spirit of volunteering. Mostly they follow an easily recognized pattern: They declare to have been seen your data in WWOOF, interest in farming, etc. and after some short replies they offer a substantial amount of money in order to be employed or invited to come for work, etc. We do not want to discriminate, but behaviour and intentions are so clear, that we strongly recommend ignoring them (usually they are coming from countries in Africa, but could come from any other place). Obviously they are completely outside our organisation and we think none of our hosts/farms is interested to contract to anyone, specially under these illegal conditions.
As you know inmigration is a complex issue and we recommend not answering these emails. Mind that behind them could be hidden mafias eager to exploit persons somehow. From WWOOF ESPAÑA we just condemn these actions and warn you about the negative consequences for all of us if you would attend them. If you have any doubts, please contact us. Always remember that first and minimun requirements to a wwoofer should be his numero de socio and complete name, so that at the very least, we can confirm you they are registered wwoofers with us. |

WWOOF ESPAÑA has been running since May 2007. We have been accepting subscriptions from WWOOFers and hosts for some time now.
In the coming weeks and months we will improve and streamline the application processes. However, it is already quite straightforward, so please continue reading the website to find out more information.
Thanks for your patience, especially for those using the English version ;-). |
