Details

The Rwanda Experience:

As a volunteer, you will experience traditional Rwanda life and participate in daily activities, such as cooking over an open fire, collecting firewood, playing with children, teaching children, assisting in the vegetable garden as well as construction projects.

Volunteer Placement Work:

The type of work you are involved with will be dependent on your interests, abilities, level of experience as well as your comfort levels. One of the advantages of Go Volunteer Africa Rwanda volunteer opportunities is that you are not limited to one job role and will have the opportunity to ‘sample’ other roles during your placement. To become involved in another project simply inform a member of staff who will happily make any necessary arrangements.

Volunteer Work Schedule:

Working hours are normally 4-8 hours a day. Time away from work e.g. for traveling to other parts of Rwanda or East Africa can be arranged through informing a staff member. Upon arrival, there is an orientation session for new volunteers to become acquainted with the local culture, language and project work. Further training and supervision may be provided to new volunteers who are interested in tasks for which they lack adequate experience.

As a volunteer with Go Volunteer Africa in Rwanda you will:

  • Gain new perspectives and insight into another culture and yourself.
  • Experience another culture and country at a deep and personal level from the inside out.
  • Gain hands-on experience that will distinguish you on professional level for career development.
  • Make a positive impact on the community in the areas of education, childhood development, healthcare, and other social services. 

We also encourage families to volunteer, where the minimum age for children volunteering in Rwanda is eight years old. We also accommodate both large and small groups in Rwanda. A volunteer in Rwanda must have no physical disability and ready to come and offer his or her time in Rwanda.

Go Volunteer Africa is the top rated volunteer travel in Africa. Go Volunteer Africa allows you to combine meaningful volunteer projects with action-packed adventure travel into the ultimate life-changing experience. 

Our volunteers work with women empowerment projects, teaching, medical, construction, day care centers, and wildlife conservation programs in Rwanda from 1 week to 24 weeks in duration.
