North South Programme

Projects in Latin America, Africa and Asia. They don’t involve humanitarian or aid work, but they do give you the chance to experience a completely different way of life. Generally, they’ll involve environmental, construction or renovation work although there are some social, archaeological and arts-based projects available, depending on the country.

These projects come from community-based initiatives. You’ll learn from living and working in a richly mixed, international group, as well as from the practical work itself.

You could find yourself…

  • Organising activities for street children in India
  • Helping with a HIV awareness in Ghana
  • Constructing a safe drinking water and sanitation building in Uganda
  • Improving children’s education in Peru
  • Protecting marine turtles in Mexico
