Volunteer Abroad in Malawi: Volunteering Opportunities
Description
Volunteering Abroad in Malawi: The Republic of Malawi is a small, impoverished yet incredibly beauty country in southeastern Africa. It is one of the most densely populated African countries, which remains heavily dependent on agriculture. Malawi is surrounded by Mozambique, Zambia, and Tanzania. Lake Malawi, formerly Lake Nyasa, occupies most of the country's eastern border, 365 miles long fringed with beautiful beaches and traditional fishing village.
Malawi is the fifth poorest country in the world, with a government education system sorely lacking in both funds and teachers. HIV/AIDS and malaria are widespread in Malawi and there is poor access to medical treatment throughout the country.
Volunteers work in town schools, orphanages and medical clinics. Rural village placements include orphanage assistance, teaching English, support HIV/Aids awareness prevention, community development, and elderly care and woman's empowerment support projects.
Highlights
Our programs allow you to take part in meaningful community service work, while discovering the people, sights, smells and tastes of Malawi. Live with the local host families, enjoy weekends lake side, or visiting one of the national parks.
Volunteering in Malawi is a way to totally immerse yourself in Sub Saharan African culture.
This is a great opportunity to make life-long friends, learn a new culture from the inside out and discover that one person really can make a difference. Volunteer overseas with us and see A Broader View of the World.
