International Educational Exchange: International Volunteer Projects

CIEE's
International Volunteer Projects are designed as short-term volunteer
experiences that make it easy for nearly everyone to get out there and
make a difference in the world (minimum age: 18). With so many projects
and countries to choose from, the possibilities for designing your own
personalized international experience are endless.
International Partnership for Service-Learning
http://www.ipsl.org/
IPS-L programs, offered in 14 countries, unite
academic study and volunteer service, giving students a fully integrated
study abroad experience. The service
enlivens the formal learning, and the learning informs the service. Both
students and the host communities benefit from the substantial service
each student gives. By studying at a local university and serving 15-20
hours per week in a school, orphanage, health clinic or other agency
addressing human needs, students find their knowledge of the host
culture--and of themselves-- take on greater depth and meaning.

Worldwide Volunteering for Young People
http://www.worldwidevolunteering.org.uk/
Over 800 organisations already promote their volunteer placements
through the WWVol database, bringing their activities to the notice of
many more potential volunteers. We concentrate on full-time placements
lasting anything from one week to a year or more. We do not include very
short term or occasional opportunities, details of which are best
accessed by local information providers. All our organisations have
opportunities for 16 - 25 year olds though most also have placements for
older or younger volunteers.
