Doing Voluntary Work Abroad

Doing voluntary work abroad offers a chance to combine foreign travel with work experience. This book shows how to go about it, giving information on qualifications, skills and experience that may be needed and how to find the opportunities whether in the UK, Europe, North and South America, or the countries of Africa and Asia. The book details a variety of opportunities available from working in conservation or technical development to working with the disabled or other disadvantaged groups. It also contains case histories and checklists of information about each type of assignment.
