Volunteer Malawi

More volunteer opportunities in Malawi. If you do visit Malawi for an awesome volunteer experience remember to leave some time in your schedule for a bit of sightseeing in a country that the HuffPost identified as its "Top Emerging Travel Hotspot". Not just home to the beautiful Lake Malawi with its scenic wonderland and water sports, the country has nine national parks and wildlife reserves in a landscape that is one of the most varied in Africa.

Please note that many volunteer opportunities in Malawi were disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic which led to the permanent closure of some volunteer opportunities and restrictions on others. Hopefully things are now beginning to return to normal. If you run or know of a volunteer work project in Malawi let us know by contacting us here. We look forward to hearing from you!
