Volunteering abroad 2020

We ask all volunteers to make sure that their travel is compatible with the most recent recommendations of health authorities with regards to the spread of the Coronavirus. In case you are travelling from, or recently travelled through a higher risk area, please check the health recommendations of the country, where the project takes place, as restrictions may apply (e.g. ban, quarantine, isolation). We will also gladly be at your assistance if cannot find such information yourself. We will take the necessary health precautions for our projects. Please contact us to get more information in case you have any concerns or questions.

Workcamp Switzerland offers volunteer work in over 50 countries in Europe, Asia, North and South America as well as North and Central Africa. To meet local needs, we only work with local organisations. Throughout the year there are international offers. Volunteering offers you the chance to deepen your personal, social and intercultural skills and to get involved.
