Badmintona iespējas brīvprātīgajiem Āfrikā un Āzija
Pasaules Badmintona federācija, sadarbībā ar ANO piedāvā arī kādam no Latvijas brīvprātīgo statusā palīdzēt attīstīt badmintonu kādā no Āfrikas vai Tuvo Austrumu valstīm. Diemžēl, laiks pārdomām ir ļoti neliels, jo pieteikšanās termiņš ir jau 7.septembris. Vēl nav zināms, kad varētu sākties iespējama misija, taču zināms, ka mācību nometne varētu notikt visdrīzāk Vācijā 2016.gadā. ANO segs brīvprātīgajam ceļa izdevumus, kā arī dzīvošanu un ēšanu uz vietas, kā arī nelielu dienas naudu. Dalībniekam pašam ir jāsamaksā par vīzām, ja tādas nepieciešamas, kā arī papildus nauda sīkiem tēriņiem un ceļojumiem pēc paša izvēles.
