    If you’re curious about learning how to grow crops, care for animals, practice organic farming, and explore natural production techniques, this is your chance! Volungo Abroad, in partnership with local initiatives, invites you to join a unique volunteer program focused on sustainable and hands-on learning.

    Through this opportunity, you'll dive into alternative food production systems, sustainable methods, and eco-friendly waste management — all designed to work in harmony with nature.

    As part of your orientation, you’ll take a Self-Guided Farm Tour, where you’ll explore our 30 interactive Information Stations across the Educational Farm.

    Instructions:

    Our work is driven by a deep commitment to our projects, and we want to ensure we find the right "match" between volunteers and the roles available. This alignment is crucial for making a genuine contribution to development work. We aim to pair the right candidates with the right projects, so both sides benefit.

    In our view, this is the only way volunteer work can be meaningful for everyone involved. You want to make a social impact, and your commitment in the host country should truly make a difference. Beyond that, we hope you return home with lasting friendships, a wealth of new experiences, and personal growth that makes your time with us truly fulfilling.
