Giant Jamboree/Volunteers
VOLUNTEER
We are looking for volunteers to help us make the 2017 Giant Jamboree amazing!
The iGEM 2017 Giant Jamboree will be from Thursday November 9 to Monday November 13 in the Hynes Convention Center in Boston, Massachusetts, and we're looking for volunteers to help with the event!
Help us ensure that every iGEM participant has an amazing experience! In addition to the Jamboree days, we are also looking for help setting up on Wednesday November 8.
Thank you for your interest! We are no longer accepting applications for volunteers but look forward to meeting you at future iGEM events.
We're asking that volunteers commit to at least 2 days since this is a multi-day event. Please keep in mind that your first priority as volunteer is to your designated area and that this may mean that you will miss out on some/all presentations, but we will do our best to make sure you have free time depending on the number of volunteers. Unfortunately iGEM HQ cannot provide financial aid or accommodations for volunteers but food will be provided throughout the event, and volunteers will receive complimentary admission for the days they volunteer.
This opportunity is open to AlumniGEM and other non-team members only.
Volunteer Duties
- Assisting attendees
- Staffing presentation rooms, special event areas, information desk
- Generating updates for social media outlets
- Setting up in the mornings, and breaking down in the evenings

- Other tasks as necessary
If you have any trouble with the application, please let us know via email at kitwa AT igem DOT org.
