Enrich your life: go to Gambia and volunteer for Education or Healthcare projects!

That's why Gambia

The Gambia offers you the unique opportunity to contribute to the development of a community, while developing yourself personally and professionally. In a role that matches your education and/or experience. For example, you could teach English, organize creative activities for children, or, something completely different, provide essential care in local hospitals and pharmacies. Experience the culture from the inside and build unforgettable memories!

Education

You help children and young people by first observing the teacher and assisting with the English lesson, and/or teaching independently, you organize creative or sporting activities for children and young people and thus contribute to their growth and development.

Care and welfare

Work with local professionals in hospitals, pharmacies, and dental practices. Or support children with disabilities and learn essential skills in an international context.

This is you
