Description
The Eurovision Song Contest is one of the longest running television shows in the world. It was on the 24th of May, 1956, that Europe saw the first ever Eurovision Song Contest. After 56 runnings, the contest is one of the most typical European traditions and without doubt, Europe’s favorite TV show! In 2005, the Eurovision Song Contest celebrated its 50th anniversary by picking the best entry to date.
Already for 56 years, the Eurovision Song Contest is Europe’s favorite TV show. After more than five decades featuring some 1,100 songs, the contest has become a modern classic, strongly embedded into Europe’s collective mind.
The National Assembly of Youth Organizations of the Republic of Azerbaijan (NAYORA) is pleased to announce the call for volunteers to serve during the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 that will be held from 22nd till 26th of May 2012. The volunteers are supposed to arrive on 20th May and depart on 27th May.
Costs
NAYORA will provide accommodation and meals. The costs of local transportation will also be covered by NAYORA. The volunteers will be required to cover the travel costs to Baku, Azerbaijan.
Eligibility
All interested are eligible to apply.
Application
Interested volunteers should send the filled in application forms and passport copies to Hasan Seyidov (hasan.seyidov@yahoo.com) by 28th February 2012.
In aplication, there is a section for name and information about the organization.About what organization seeking the information and whether we belong to an organization?
Dear Miodrag,
My guess is that you need to fill that part if you are going on behalf of an organization, or some organization is sending you there. I am not quite sure, so my advise would be either to look for a sending organization, or to contact NAYORA or Hasan Seyidov, and ask if you need a sending organization, or you can go as an individual, i.e by yourself.
Kind regards

If you are a minor, can you also apply,and do you need some sort of permission of your parents ?
Dear Elvira,
The official call did not say anything about age restrictions, but as it is customary, I suppose if they are accepting minor, you would need a consent from your parents. Please contact NAYORA or Hasan Seyidov (e-mail above) and ask them your question. They are best suited to give you a correct answer.
Kind regards

Do you know when the applicants will get a response? If I am not successful will I receive an email telling me so?
Thank you.
Dear Jenny,
Sorry, but we have no insight in the selection process, and we cannot know when will the applicants get a response, or whether they will get an e-mail if they are not selected. That is up to the organizers, so please direct your questions at them.
Kind regards
