why Intrepid Volunteering?

  • The projects are away from the big cities, in rural communities, where the villagers have large visions for their future. The volunteers and villagers work with each other towards a common goal. It's a two way interaction.
  • The CREW are on hand throughout each project. They are chosen because of their experiences in the field and because they have a good sense of what to do and how to react to situations.
  • You can do both a PROJECT + ADVENTURE for a unique experience. It means you can spend valued time in one village before doing further travel to experience more, taste more food and explore.
  • Intrepid Volunteering projects are assessed for their long term contribution to local communities. Over the last 5 years the Intrepid Volunteering crew have achieved incredible results.
