Volunteer overseas

Watch our volunteers at work in life-changing workplaces around the world.

You can volunteer with Red Cross in Asia, Africa and the Pacific.

You might assist a Cambodian hospital with its strategic planning. Review human resources procedures in a Kenyan relief agency. Support a climate change program in Vanuatu.

Wherever you go, you will share your skills and expertise with your colleagues - working under local management to achieve local priorities.

We will cover your airfares, accommodation, living allowances and other support.

New assignments are now online, to commence in September 2013.

All assignments are part of the Australian Volunteers for International Development program, an Australian Government, AusAID initiative.
