Volunteer Programs in Minsk, Belarus

There are a variety of volunteer opportunities in Minsk. Options include conservation, child care, health care, youth development, marketing, and education. However, due to the stern and—at times—opaque Belarusian government policies, many volunteer programs in Minsk do not specify what the participants will be doing prior to arrival. For whatever lack of certainty you may experience beforehand, it will be made up for in adventure and cultural experience when volunteering abroad in Minsk!

Since Minsk is relatively untouched by tourists for a European capital, you can really immerse yourself in Belarusian culture while volunteering in Minsk. The city offers a window into what life was like in the Soviet Union, as it remains relatively unchanged since the communist era—for instance, in Independence Square, there’s a giant statue of Lenin for volunteers in Minsk to feast their eyes on.
