Volunteer Destinations
There are many NGOs and placement organizations available throughout the developing world, and the need for quality, committed volunteers is great.
Volunteers will surely find a program and/or NGO that fits their skills and needs, while offering the invaluable resource of an extra set of hands. It is important to note that while within the NGOs themselves there is much local influence, the majority of placement agencies are run by North Americans or Europeans.
While the desire and drive to help the impoverished or disadvantaged is admirable, it is very important to be aware of the cultural preconceptions and prejudices associated with being a foreigner in Asia, Africa and Latin America. As each region is explored in more depth in the following pages, customs and traditions will be addressed, but it is highly recommended to consult with a native of your potential host country before traveling for tips and advice about how to best integrate into the culture.
