There is a General Agreement for Study Visits that you can use and adapt to suit your needs. It is important to have a Study Visit Agreement in place to ensure that all elements of the visit are clear and to avoid any misunderstandings occurring.
The agreement can also be a useful reminder of what you need to think about whilst organising the visit. It can also help you during your fundraising as proof that the necessary formalities have been fulfilled. The most important thing is to agree is how the visit will be financed. For example, either group could pay for the event in its entirety or expenses could be split between the two groups. It will be useful to specify what each group will pay for, and how much they will pay.
