Community & Medical Volunteering Projects

There are a number of different ways you can help make your mark and be involved on a community level across the globe.  Global health is always important, and our medical volunteering projects aim to provide support to those communities that are in dire need of assistance.  You can participate in primary healthcare treatments and emergency referrals; if you choose to do some medical volunteering in Namibia. You can be on the frontline of providing basic first aid and medical education in Nepal or you can assist in the various medical volunteering projects in the Maldives.

On a community level, you can volunteer with local farmers in Nepal who rely on their land and traditional agricultural methods to sustain themselves and their families.

It would be difficult to disagree that often at the root of many of our community and environmental concerns is a lack of education.  This is why throughout all the projects, alongside hands-on support, is a focus on learning about health, sustainability and the environment.

There is also though, an emphasis on cultural appreciation and spirit.  In Nepal, volunteers live with the families in rural areas and really get to be a part of their daily lives and communities.
