African Volunteer Work
On this page we detail African volunteer work placements by country; some are fee paying with your costs covering food and accommodation whilst others are free and offered in exchange for your valued contribution although few, if any, cover your travel costs. You can either browse each country for the type of work placement you are looking for or use our powerful search facility above to search for your area of interest or expertise whether it be with children, community groups, animals welfare, conservation, construction, health care etc. African is a large and diverse continent so you're sure to find something of interest!
Please note that not all African countries have work placements all of the time and some, where there is conflict, are unsafe places to work either in the short or longer term although these are few. You should always check your government advice before making volunteer arrangements and ensuring the offered work is suitable for your needs and circumstances. The African Volunteer Network takes no responsibility for the placement providers detailed in our volunteer work listings and prospective volunteers should satisfy themselves as to the integrity of any project before making any committment financial or otherwise.
