Reviews of Volunteer Programs in Mongolia

Learn more about volunteering abroad in Mongolia!

Though Mongolia is one of Asia’s most functional democracies, it remains one of the poorest countries on the continent. Volunteers who select Mongolia as their destination will find no shortage of work, but they will find no shortage of hospitality, history, and culture either. An incredibly interesting country, growing economically and politically, Mongolia will not only offer you a stimulating and eye opening abroad experience, it will also offer the chance to make a difference. Sign up to work in an orphanage camp, to build houses, or to spend your time in a health clinic – whatever you choose to do, your life in Mongolia will be more than meaningful, it will be rewarding in more ways than you can imagine.

Don’t forget that volunteer work won’t be the only activity you’ll be engaged in, you’ll also have the time to venture around the country’s beautiful landscape, explore a ger or two, and definitely ride a horse (the ration is 13 horses to every 1 Mongolian). The tough part for you now is choosing a program, but we’re here to help. Take a look at the following list of volunteer program descriptions and reviews, and you will get a sense for the structure, focus, and work of each one. When you finally return home – return the favor and leave a review of your own! You’ll provide invaluable advice to fellow users who face the same decision that you face now.
