Anthropology Volunteering in Dominican Republic

This versatile NGO management & administration experience and observation program gives insight into all aspects of running the Aldeas de Paz Foundation. It's geared toward participants interested in starting their own charity or who want hands-on experience in the day-to-day running of a grassroots NGO. Volunteers and interns observe and assist the coordinator and director with office work, as well as in-community project support, administrative work, and the coordination and supervision of community programs and participating volunteers. The NGO management volunteers and interns also help ensure the well-being of our volunteers and their coordination and full integration into various programs offered, as well as into the social life of the community. The foundation relies on NGO volunteers and interns to ensure smooth operations and therefore requires flexible and dedicated volunteers. Direct work with our primary beneficiaries is an essential part of the work of Aldeas de Paz, so NGO volunteers and interns are also expected to participate in foundation-wide events and activities involving our beneficiaries.
