Volunteers Wanted

Our organization is unique in Malta.

Since the beginning of Koperattiva Kummerc Gust in 1996, we have only been able to run our campaigns thanks to both local and international volunteers who got inspired by our projects.

Currently our main fields of activity are:

Running the Fair Trade shop (il-Ħanut l-Arka)

Promoting Fair Trade in an informal way (e.g. organizing the World Fest [Array] and Taste the World [Array])

Promoting Fair Trade in a formal way (e.g. visiting schools, developing educational material)

Doing political lobbying (e.g. work on the Millennium Development Goals and lobby for worker's rights at a political level)

We are always looking for new volunteers.

The only thing we ask is that you:
Have a big heart for the world
To swim along against the stream

Age: not important
Diplomas: no objection
Number of vacancies: unlimited

We offer:
A permanent appointment, new friendships, a surprising journey, a home.
