7-12 Months Volunteer Management Volunteer Abroad Programs

Throughout all days in here, I came to realise a lot of important facts and elements of this country and region. Every program activities is memorable and make me being more interested in the situation and reality. Moreover, every people I met in this city is quite nice to me, and I could have an unforgettable days. I was really honored to be here and hope that I come back to my friends soon!

I learnt so much about the realities of life in Palestine at Go Palestine, but from a place of relative comfort. The centre is in the heart of the city of Hebron, and from here, it's relatively easy to get to places such as Hebron Old Town (where the Ibrahimi Mosque or Cave of the Patriarchs is), the farming village of Al Burj, Al-Aroub Refugee Camp. My favourite aspect of my experience are the people. I was only here one week but now it feels like I'm leaving my family. Can't wait to come back.

Coming from the busy city of London, this was a fantastic experience to open my mind, get to know a festinating culture while being able to reach out to people in need and support this honest, small charity led by Ivan. I have been able to learn a lot about the food, the way of living and about the people in Uganda thanks to BID. I was able to learn how to make bricks for the organization, plant vegetables for food supply and visit villages where vulnerable people are helped and women are empowered thanks to BID Uganda.

It has been really nice to get to know people from Palestine, speak with them and understand the actual situation. The center provide me of different activities that made it possible. Thank you. The arabic classes are really useful and you can use what you learn in the streets and shops. The volunteers are really nice and kind.

I had an amazing experience during my time here. One of the highlights was teaching English to local children. This was such a fun and rewarding experience, and seeing their enthusiasm made the lesson memorable. I also had the opportunity to take part in meaningful cultural exchanges with local people. Everyone I met was incredibly welcoming, kind, and eager to share their stories and traditions, which made my stay even more special. I took Arabic classes as well, and Tala was absolutely wonderful. She has a fantastic way of breaking down vocabulary and grammar into simple, easy to understand explanations, making learning Arabic much less intimidating and genuinely enjoyable. As a solo female traveler, I felt very safe throughout my stay. The support, hospitality, and genuine care I received gave me confidence to explore and fully enjoy the experience. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking for a meaningful combination of volunteering, language learning, and cultural immersion. It was an unforgettable experience that I will always treasure.

My experience with MOLAC (Modern Linguistics and African Cultural Promotion Centre) was truly rewarding. The organization provides a unique opportunity to engage with local communities while experiencing the rich culture of Tanzania. The team is welcoming, supportive, and dedicated to ensuring that volunteers have a meaningful and impactful experience. I particularly appreciated the cultural immersion activities, Kiswahili language learning opportunities, and homestay programs, which allowed me to connect deeply with local traditions and daily life. MOLAC creates a friendly environment where volunteers can contribute to community projects while developing new skills and friendships. The staff were always available to assist with orientation, accommodation, and project coordination, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend MOLAC to anyone looking for an authentic volunteer experience in Tanzania that combines service, cultural exchange, and personal growth.

My experience with MOLAC was truly unforgettable. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed like a member of the family. Living with a local host family gave me a genuine understanding of Tanzanian culture, traditions, and daily life. The Kiswahili lessons were practical and engaging, helping me communicate confidently with local people. I especially enjoyed practicing the language during community activities and cultural visits. The volunteer experience was meaningful and well-organized. I felt that my contribution was valued, and I learned just as much from the community as I was able to give. The MOLAC team was supportive, friendly, and always available to help. This program offered the perfect combination of cultural immersion, language learning, and community engagement. I made lifelong friendships, gained new perspectives, and created memories that I will cherish forever. I highly recommend MOLAC to anyone looking for an authentic and impactful experience in Tanzania.

I had a great time in London with the intern group! I learned a lot about myself and my work ethic, and my likes and dislikes. I loved to experience traveling and seeing Europe in for the first time! Overall it was a great experience!

Volunteering with UCESCO means becoming part of a larger vision — one that believes in human potential and works every day to create lasting change. It is an experience that leaves a mark, not only on those who receive, but also on those who give.UCESCO Africa is a committed, grassroots organization working daily to support vulnerable children and women through education, training, and concrete aid. Its projects reach deep into underserved communities, offering not just help, but real opportunities for growth and dignity. Thanks to my friends and family we were able to provide desks, chairs, food in Samburu, and scholarships. In Nairobi, at the Peggy Lucas School, uniforms and meals were distributed with the support of the Dynastic Orders of the Royal House of Savoy. At the Masayo Visionary & Empowerment Training Institute (M.V.E.T.I), young women from the slum are offered vocational training in beauty and wellness. Recently, a fully equipped training room was opened and new uniforms were provided, enabling students to learn in a safe and professional environment. I also introduced new courses in italian and in marketing, communication, and fundraising. I met lovely people and I still have all their loughs and smiles with me. My homestay at Kingsley's place was fantastic. I felt at home since the first days. Thanks everybody for all the love you gave to me, my life changed after all we shared and exchanged. Asante!

My six-month marketing internship with Interngroup was a great experience. I had the opportunity to further develop my creative skills, while working on a variety of marketing-related tasks. The Interngroup team were supportive and organised, which made it easy to settle in and get the most out of the programme. The intern events were a great part of the programme. It was an enjoyable way to connect with others and experience the city outside of work. Overall it was a delightful and valuable experience.

The program is a great cultural exchange, learning arabic and conversing with students. I would definitely recommend to book some of the extra activities, be it visiting Nablus or Jericho, or visiting the camps. The human rights course was particularly valuable from my perspective, and seeing the joy on the kids' faces when distributing toys is a memory that will stay with me for a long time. The staff here was very attentive to my needs and flexible with the schedule due to current situation (war with Iran), so I felt very safe.

As the title states, this experience has been life changing for me. I was able to meet amazing people who were so kind and welcoming when they don't know me from adam. I made life long friends here who i will forever hold closely in my heart. The center is a great place to give back to the people whether it's teaching English or going to the camp & handing out toys to children. The activities set up for you throughout your stay keep you occupied and really immerse you in the culture and lifestyle of Palestine. I can not recommend the volunteer program enough. To anyone who is interested in volunteering I say, "Do it.", you will not regret your decision.

I had an incredible experience with the intern group in London. From the very beginning, the team made me feel genuinely welcomed and supported, which made settling into a new city so much easier. The entire program was extremely well organised and clearly focused on helping interns get the most out of both their professional and personal experience. A special thank you has to go to Peach and Alex. They went above and beyond to make sure I had the best possible experience. They were always approachable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping me make meaningful progress in my career. Whether it was offering advice, organising opportunities, or simply checking in to make sure everything was going well, they made a huge difference to my time in the program. Because of them, I not only gained valuable professional experience, but I also truly fell in love with London. Their enthusiasm for the city and the community they built around the interns made the entire experience unforgettable. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to develop their career while experiencing life in one of the most exciting cities in the world. Thanks to Peach, Alex, and the whole team, my time in London is something I will always be grateful for. 🌍✨

I had a great time studying abroad! I loved Ibt Media and learned so much. I got great hands on experience, more than I ever thought I would. I had great bosses and they were so patient with me when I was first learning how everything worked.

We’re so happy to hear you had such a great experience, Kyra! It’s fantastic that you gained hands-on experience and felt supported by your team at IBT Media. We love seeing our interns grow in confidence and skills. We're looking forward to watching you grow further!

I had an amazing time meeting people here in Hebron. The people were warm, curious and so generous. I felt included and taken care of and fully immersed in the culture. Late night coffee, sheesha and sweets. The local teenagers were fun to talk to. The experience with the children and educators in the Al Roob refugee camp was eye opening. I will definitely be back.

Coming to Palestine is a truly life changing experience. I got to go and hang with kids in the Al-Aroub refugee camp and speak with many locals about their daily lives and hardships. I learned some conversational Arabic from the best teacher, Tala. The hospitality I received with open arms from the locals was heart warming. I will never forget my experience here. Walking the streets at night during Ramadan was one of the biggest culture shocks and eye opening things I've ever been able. Shukran

Superbe expérience au Slot Rescue Center au Costa Rica. J’étais dans l’équipe des vétérinaires en autre , et j’ai participé à soigner, nourrir, nettoyer, des paresseux, des perroquets, ratons laveurs, petit singe hurleur… et autres. <br>Nous sommes hébergés en général dans des chambres de 4 avec des lits superposés. <br>Il y a des règles à observer puisque nous débutons en général assez tôt le matin quoique tout le monde n’a pas le même horaire. <br>Nous avons 3 repas par jour à des heures précises . Il ne faut pas s’attendre à manger comme dans un hôtel tout inclus, mais nous mangeons bien , à notre faim et diversifier. <br>Si vous voulez manger différemment, il y a à quelques minutes de marche une épicerie à grande surface. <br>Tout le monde est très gentil, l’entraide et le respect sont très important. <br>Apporter de bonnes chaussures de marche ou bottines, et vous serez très à l’aise comme ça. <br>Le centre offre aussi des excursions payantes une fois dans la semaine. <br>Pour les périodes de repos, il y’a une grande piscine très propre. <br>Les chambres sont nettoyées et la literie est lavé une fois semaine. <br>J’ai trouvé l’endroit très propre et les animaux sont vraiment respectés et bien traités . <br>Il ne faut pas oublier, que pour plusieurs, ils seront remis en liberté après leur séjour au centre. <br>Je vous le recommande, il n’y a pas que des jeunes personnes, on y retrouve des familles avec jeunes enfants, des jeunes adultes et des plus âgés aussi. <br>J’ai bien aimé le respect des gens pour l’horaire de travail, tout le monde est à l’heure et c’est du bénévolat. <br>Bon séjour là bas !

I spent three weeks volunteering with refugees in Palestine and it was a truly life changing experience. My main task was teaching conversational English to kids in a group camp, and watching them gain confidence and laugh while learning was incredibly rewarding. The local staff helped us connect with the community respectfully and safely. I left with new friendships, a deeper understanding of Palestinian culture, and a feeling that my time there genuinely made a positive impact. Highly recommended :)

The most memorable experience from my program was that I had the privilege of working with Costa Rican wildlife for two weeks, and every day I was within a foot of beautiful animals, primarily sloths, but also birds, raccoons, monkeys, and baby animals like a baby raccoon in an incubator. Also memorable was that almost every afternoon, there would be a rainstorm and I would be able to lie on a couch outdoors, under an awning, reading and watching the rain. The whole thing was incredible from beginning to end, I loved it.

Working in the baby hospital and being a part of the vet team. I got to use the skills I have and also learned from the vets and coordinators. Most memorable was caring for the baby howler monkey from feedings to outdoor time. Also playground time with the sloths.
