The Role of Volunteers

The success of ICASA 2023 depends heavily on the support of volunteers between 150 and 200 working with ICASA during the week of 4th to 9th December 2023.

Volunteers will help coordinate programme activities, greet visiting delegates, assist with registration, act as guides during the conference, staff various offices and activities, and perform other crucial tasks. Volunteers will receive training and support from ICASA staff and the conference volunteer coordinators.

Volunteers will have free access to conference sessions when not on duty, a lunch each working day and they will also receive a Certificate of Appreciation.

Furthermore, volunteers will have the opportunity to gain international experience at the African largest open scientific conference on HIV/AIDS.

To volunteer, you must be at least 18 years old (as of 4th December 2023), have a good level of English/French and be available for at least three- and half--day shifts. Volunteers who can commit to more than 6 shifts from 4th to 09th December 2023 will be prioritized.

Volunteer registration will be opened on 3rd July 2023. If you have any questions, please contact volunteer@saafrica.org

Volunteers from Other Countries

Persons from countries other than ICASA 2023 host country seeking to volunteer at ICASA 2023 will be required to meet customs and immigration requirements for visitors.

The conference secretariat is unfortunately not able to offer any financial assistance or an official Letter of Invitation to help with visas. It is the sole responsibility of the volunteer to take care of his/her visa requirements.

Volunteers are responsible for their own accommodation and travel costs. The conference organizers reserve the right to modify the programme, which is published as an indication only.
