Are you interested in international NGO work? Most of Maailmanvaihto’s activities are carried out by volunteers—join us!
Anyone interested in intercultural learning is warmly welcome to join our voluntary activities. Our voluntary activities offer new experiences, skills, and friends.
Many of the tasks require a longer-term commitment, and some also involve participating in training sessions. However, we also have volunteer opportunities that you can join for a shorter period of time. If you wish, you can receive a certificate of participation.
