OLUNTEERS OPPORTUNITIES

Humanitarian Affairs offers volunteer opportunities in community projects throughout the world. We currently provide volunteer programs through our partner organizations in Cambodia, China, India, Nepal, Philippines, Russia, East Timor, Banda Aceh, Myanmar, Mongolia and Vietnam. The network continues to expand with new programs currently being researched and assessed.

Our vision is to support the work of local community organizations in developing countries through the placement of international volunteers. We believe that local communities are in the best position to determine their needs, and we provide volunteers to help them achieve their goals.

Volunteering is a great way to contribute to the global community and gain experience, and also fosters personal growth. Whether you would like to take a short volunteer vacation or a prolonged gap year, Humanitarian Affairs provides challenging and affordable international programs.
