A Guide to Volunteering Abroad in Asia
Locations
Asia is the largest of the world’s seven continents, both in terms of size and population. To say that there are ample locations to volunteer in Asia would be a bit of an understatement. With such a variety of locations, comes a multitude of options when it comes to your volunteer experience, what type of work you will be doing, how much things will cost, and what type of culture you will be immersed in. The countries listed below are just a few of the most popular countries for volunteering abroad in Asia.
India: As the second most populous nation on earth, India certainly has a wide range of fields for volunteers to chose from. Medical volunteering is especially popular in India, especially in rural areas where the need for proper eye and dental care is high, which includes opportunities to work in maternal and child health. Multiple volunteer organizations provide international volunteer programs in India for individuals with widely varying backgrounds.
Nepal: If a volunteer program on the roof of the world sounds appealing to you, consider volunteering in Nepal. Volunteer organizations in Nepal frequently accept volunteers to assist with programs involving everything from teaching orphaned children to constructing community facilities to assisting with seasonal crop planting and harvesting. Nepal represents a potentially life changing experience, for both volunteers and the local people.
Thailand: The climate and culture of Thailand attracts millions of visitors to the nation’s beautiful beaches each year, but outside of the resorts the country sees its fair share of social issues and need. Volunteer programs in Thailand provide numerous opportunities to work with children and in human trafficking. In general, individuals can volunteer in Thailand throughout all regions of the country, in both urban and rural areas.
