Marrakech: The Amazigh (Berber) community is made up of the descendants of the indigenous, pre-Arab inhabitants of North Africa. This project provides volunteers with the unique opportunity to work within an Amazigh village while helping them with their daily tasks, and providing them with new skills to help improve their daily life.
Sri Lanka: Want to experience traditional Sri Lankan life? You can in the rural community of Hanguranketha in the Nuwara Eliya district or in the surrounding areas of Sigiriya. Volunteers assist with the long term development of communities and the education of local villagers.
Tanzania: Many people who are known to be suffering from HIV/AIDS in Tanzania can find it difficult to gain employment and ultimately provide for their households. This project offers volunteers the opportunity to provide assistance to women living with HIV/AIDS, supporting them in becoming more self-sufficient.
