community development in asia
a continent of wild beauty & ancient cultures

There are few things that give a greater sense of achievement than rolling up your sleeves and getting involved in community development work. Volunteering in Asia on your gap year or career break gives you the opportunity to work in an orphanage, see what a difference you can make teaching at a local school and even introduce your own grassroots economic development project as you travel in Asia. Immerse yourself in the local community for an original, rewarding and exciting adventure meeting new friends and discovering a spellbinding new country when you volunteer abroad.

Have a look at our community development programs for your perfect gap year in Asia and book yourself onto the adventure of a lifetime:
