Volunteering with ICYE UK is a transformational experience with real impact. Our ethical programmes promote peace, intercultural awareness and equality of opportunity, encouraging young people from around the world to live, learn and work together.

UK residents can apply now to join us on our six or 12-month placements starting in either January or August, and work with locally run NGOs in Asia, Latin America, Africa, and Europe on impactful projects that matter, such as:
- Human rights projects
- Women’s empowerment projects
- Supporting people with compromised health and/or disabilities
- Environmental and wildlife conservation
- Sustainable agriculture projects
- Providing education, care, and support for children from under-resourced communities
- Sports, art, or cultural projects
- Community development programmes
- And many more

Additionally, short-term placements of 3 to 5 months with flexible start dates are available in some of our partner countries.

Whether you join us on our long-term or short-term programme, you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in a new culture and language, learn, grow, and make an impact!
