internship/volunteer possibilities in Russia?

[Katy Harris]

Have a look at the website of the German-Russian
Exchange (GRE)at www.austausch.com, (there's fairly
detailed info in English as well as in German), they
regularly send students and young people on
internships in Russia (not just Germans, people from
lots of countries) and have contacts to all sorts of
organisations from social projects to environmental
projects, placing people in NGOs and in their own
offices - their website has a good links page to the
organisations themselves, or you can go through GRE
who provide quite good organisational support and
advice, occasionally funding as well, but this is
usually for longer placements.
I did an intership through them with an environmental
organisation in Irktusk(www.baikalwave.eu.org), which
was fantastic.
Hope that helps!
