If you're interested in volunteering on ongoing projects in exchange for free room and board, contact Gil Rosenthal. CICHAZ is open to everyone with a research interest in the Huasteca region. To plan your own research or an exploratory visit, please send an email to Gil Rosenthal with (a) a brief description of the proposed work; (b) tentative dates; (c) number of people involved; (d) any special personal or project needs. Also address the extent to which local community members will be involved in, or benefit from, the proposed research. Per-diem fees, which include lodging and facilities use, are assessed on a case-by-case basis depending on length of stay, group size, financial situation, and community benefit. Per-diem fees do not include food except for coffee and oranges ad libitum.
