Applicants warrant that all information and materials contained in the Application belong to the Applicant, and the Application does not infringe, misappropriate or violate the rights of any third party including, but not limited to, copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights, rights of publicity or privacy or defamation, or portrayal in a false light.

The top three (3) Applicants from each country will be referred to as semi-finalist candidates (“Candidates”) and will be asked to participate in an interview with select Reviewers to take place over a Zoom video chat or such other online meeting platform designated by the Reviewers (the “Interview”). Candidates will be notified in advance via email/phone to schedule the Interview. Reviewers will determine date/time and duration of Interview. Failure of a Candidate to respond within twenty-four (24) hours of notification attempt or failure to participate in the Interview (including on camera video) during the scheduled time will result in the Candidate being disqualified from further review. All eligible Candidates will be evaluated based on their Application and Interview, and one (1) Candidate from each eligible country will be selected as the Volunteer from their eligible country and invited to participate in the Volunteer Opportunity, subject to verification of qualifications.

The selected Candidates (also called the Volunteers) will be notified via email/phone (“Notification”) and will be required to provide additional documents and information to verify their eligibility and willingness to accept a Volunteer position and participate in the Volunteer Opportunity (“Confirmation Documents”). Failure to return the Confirmation Documents within forty-eight (48) hours of receipt thereof will result in disqualification of that Candidate and the Reviewer’s next choice of Candidate from that country may be contacted and offered the Volunteer Opportunity, following the same process.

By participating in the Application process, Applicants/Candidates/Volunteers agree to the Terms and the decisions of the Reviewers, which shall be final and binding in all respects. All semi-finalist Candidates also agree to all portions of the vetting process, including, but not limited to, interviews, a background check, passport verification, psychological evaluation and release of health information (if any). Lenovo, NGO and the Island, through the Production Company and/or other third party vendors, reserve the right to conduct a background check on the Volunteers (subject to local restrictions/limitations), and they reserve the right in their sole discretion to disqualify any potential Volunteer based on the results of such background check, if Production Company determines in its sole discretion that such Volunteer might reflect negatively on the Program. Volunteers must understand that there is limited healthcare on the Island and they must provide a clean bill of health from a licensed healthcare professional prior to departure.

Volunteer Opportunity: During the Program Period, Volunteers will travel to Santiago, Chile and then to Robinson Crusoe Island. During the Volunteer Period on the Island, Volunteers will provide their skills and expertise to help support the local community and endangered wildlife for twenty (20) hours a week during their free time. Volunteers will have access to the Lenovo Tech Space to facilitate their ability to do their current “day jobs” from a “remote office” on the Island during their normal work hours.

Volunteer Requirements: Volunteers are responsible for obtaining travel documents (i.e., Government-Issued ID and “valid passport” valid for at least 6 months beyond stay) as well as travel insurance (and all other forms of insurance), that they may need to obtain for travel (at their own expense) and hereby acknowledge that none of the Program Entities have, nor will, obtain or provide travel insurance for the Volunteer Opportunity. In the event of any unforeseen or force majeure event (including without limitation epidemic, pandemic, communicable, contagious, or infectious disease or public health quarantine that impacts the Program or travel), travel may be unable to take place and the Program and Volunteer Opportunities may be cancelled. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, Volunteers traveling to Chile (“Travelers”) must adhere to the following Entry and Exit requirements (subject to change depending on local laws):

Per Island requirements, non-Chilean citizens or residents need to obtain a “Mobility Pass” (Pase de Movibilidad), verifying that they have complete a full course of vaccination against COVID-19. The Mobility Pass must be obtained prior to arriving in Chile. Obtaining the Mobility Pass outside of Chile may take 2-3 weeks.

Travelers must complete a 7-day quarantine (subject to change) at a private residence or hotel upon arrival in Santiago, Chile (provided by Lenovo).

Travelers must complete a 3-day quarantine period (subject to change) upon arrival at Robinson Crusoe Island.

Travelers must complete an online form with the Chile Ministry of Health and they will receive a daily health survey from the Chile Ministry of Health for 14 days after arrival. The completion of this daily survey is mandatory.

Travelers (of all ages) will have to present the following three (3) documents when boarding (Failure to do so will result in the inability to board or participate in the Volunteer Opportunity):

1. A completed “Affidavit of Travelers” electronic form (also known as a Sanitary Passport) prepared less than 48 hours before boarding.
2. Proof of a negative result from a COVID-19 PCR result from a test taken within 72 hours prior to boarding their final flight to Chile. The 72-hour time period begins from the time the test is administered, not from the time that results are returned
3. Proof of a health insurance policy that provides coverage for COVID-19 and related health issues during the Traveler’s stay in Chile. The health insurance must cover charges associated with COVID-19 during the Traveler’s stay, with a coverage of USD $30,000 (minimum). All documents must be presented before boarding the flight to Chile. *Foreign residents of Chile and holders of diplomatic/official passports are exempt from the health insurance requirements

NOTICE TO INDIAN RESIDENTS: Indian residents must obtain a visa from the Chilean Consulate thirty (30) days prior to travel at their own cost and expense.

The applicant will be required to visit the Consulate in order to submit his/her passport in person. Visa stamping must be done in person and cannot be done by an agent or representative.

Exit Requirements:

Travelers departing Chile with a valid Mobility Pass have no restriction from departing Chile.

Travelers departing Chile without a Mobility Pass who are Chilean citizens or residents of Chile, must obtain a permit from the Comisaría Virtual in order to depart Chile. The criteria for these permits are extremely strict, and include cases that may be humanitarian or medical in nature, where the travel is in Chile’s national interest, or where a Traveler is moving to another country. The U.S. Embassy cannot intervene on the behalf of individual cases where a permit is denied to a U.S.-Chilean dual national, or a U.S. citizen resident of Chile. Travelers should provide as much supporting documentation as possible when requesting permits.
