Projects Abroad is one of the largest volunteer organizations in the world. Each year, we send 10,000 volunteers to 28 various developing countries around the world. The Nutrition project in Peru is aimed at reducing malnutrition rates among children and adults of rural communities. Interns will do house-to-house visits and help with workshops to educate the communities about healthy eating. This project has components relating both to medicine & healthcare as education. Interns are not required to have experience in the field, only a strong interest and a desire to learn. Basic Spanish is strongly recommended for a successful and worthwhile experience.
