Volunteering on a Public Health project is a fantastic and rewarding experience and is also a great addition to your CV or university application. Whether you're a university hopeful, studying for a degree in medicine or healthcare, or a qualified medical practitioner you will have in important role to play.

Wonderful experience

I joined a health project in Cambodia and really loved the whole experience. I got to immerse into the local culture, travel and provide meaningful healthcare assistance and also help with education.

I really liked the project

I participated on a healthcare program in Cambodia with Projects Abroad which was well organized and we always had a coordinator with us. Rehabilitation with our patients went really well and all of our patients were very pleased of our help. It was so nice to see how grateful people were for our help. The apartment I stayed was nice and clean. The food was amazing and all the staff was very friendly and helpful.
