Pilot Volunteer Fund Additional Funding

The Pilot Volunteer Fund is a small grants scheme to provide an avenue for a broad range of organisations to undertake volunteering activities in developing countries. PVF organisations will incur additional costs beyond their initial grants in order to adjust their volunteer security and safety arrangements to an acceptable standard, identified as part of the Jakeman Business Solutions review of security and safety arrangements. Additional costs relate to PVF organisations: participating in in-country security assessments; procuring fire blankets , alarms and other security-related items; and increasing project staff costs due to delays in deploying volunteers and seeking alternative arrangements where security standard are not met. The total value of this initiative is $0.4 million over two years, starting 2011-12.
