Some recommendationsTo create an accommodation infrastructure
To cooperate further AVIS-Guest Service with the aim of integrating volunteers & working guests in the community
To define a clear policy for students and working volunteers,
Set up the details of an economic & ethic frame work (rights & services, with rules of the games ), insisting of the quality of experience offered
To further the study of units needs
