Youth volunteer programmes

There will never be a shortage of youth volunteer programmes. There are non-government organizations in just about every country in the world on the constant lookout for volunteers for their projects, which themselves can vary from wildlife conservation to earthquake relief. We have a few youth volunteer programmes listed on our website – simply click on the ‘working holidays’ tab to see them. Alternatively a Google search is guaranteed to find you several hundreds more. It is important to remember on thing though – volunteer programmes are just that. You may be expected to pay something towards your stay, and you will certainly have to purchase your own air ticket. Some of the better projects will include:

• Housing in campsites, tents, or houses (depending on project)
• Meals provided by the project, but prepared by volunteers
• Airport transfers and all project-related travel
• Specialized training for each project from qualified staff, researchers, and animal care specialists where necessary
• Bi-weekly access to email and phone facilities
• 24-hour support by our local partner

Youth volunteer programmes can give enormous economic benefits to the community in which they are held, since the activities undertaken would otherwise have to be funded by the state or private means. Remember that volunteering is the practice of people working on behalf of others without being motivated by financial or material gain. In other words it is generally considered to be an altruistic activity, intended to promote good or improve human quality of life. For further information about our youth volunteer programmes have a chat with one of our consultants.
