Volunteer in Asia

Volunteering in Asia is a great way to see one of the world’s most diverse and enthralling continents while also making a positive difference to the continent. Volunteering here means gain a far greater insight into local culture and everyday life than simply passing through – which makes for a far more authentic gap year Asia or travel Asia experience. Plus, if you want to volunteer in Asia it's not necessary to have any specific skills or qualifications – just bring along your passion and an enthusiasm to 'give something back' and keep an open mind! In return you will gain an unforgettable and worthwhile travel experience that you'll treasure for years.

Opportunities for Volunteering in Asia

Volunteering in Asia with i-to-i provides you with a wide choice of worthwhile volunteer programs. You can get involved with one of our popular wildlife conservation projects, presenting thrilling opportunities to work with some of Asia's most endangered animals, such as orang utans in Borneo. You may also consider volunteering in Asia to make a contribution towards improving the lives of disadvantaged children and adults in local communities, or you could make a vital difference by contributing your time to volunteer in Vietnam or volunteer in India. Our recent Sri Lanka volunteer project enabled volunteers to help re-build homes destroyed by the 2004 tsunami. Whatever you do when you volunteer in Asia you can be sure to find the venture that's right for you.

If you want to volunteer in Asia but can’t find the project to suit you consider broadening your horizons and volunteering with other great projects in Africa, South America, Asia and Australasia.
