Gap Year Volunteering Program in Africa and Asia
Program Overview
Make a lasting difference using your talents, skills, and passion. Join us in this gap year volunteering program in destinations like Kenya, Malawi, India, Nepal, and Thailand. This is the perfect opportunity to become a global citizen while immersing yourself in diverse cultures.
At Africa & Asia Venture (AV), we consider your skills and knowledge to put these to good use in our programs in the following areas:
- Art, Drama, Music, and Dance
- Community Work
- Sports Coaching
- Teaching
Stay for as short as 5 weeks or as long as 12 weeks. You can also participate in the 16-week gap year program, which comprises 12 weeks of volunteering and 4 weeks of independent travel. If you have an alternative duration, don’t hesitate to let us know and we’ll work with you to create a tailored itinerary.
Your gap year doesn’t necessarily mean a “year” out. Get in touch with our team today to discuss your preferences.
