Argentina has a fascinating cultural mix of sophistication and passion for life, it remains largely undiscovered and is therefore Argentina is a career break adventure waiting to be discovered. Our Argentina voluntary work projects give opportunities to work within the community; they include work as a human rights volunteer, marketing the work of local artists and supporting the street children of Cordoba.
Help to forge a link between local communities and their environment in this worthwhile and interesting project. Get involved in a range of projects throughout the region and help to improve the lives and prospects for some of the poorest communities in Buenos Aires.
Make a significant difference to lives of Argentina’s underprivileged children by volunteering in the Youth Outreach programme. You’ll not only be giving them a safe and secure environment, your assistance with education and day-to-day help will dramatically improve their standard of life.
If you want to gain a real insight into Latin American culture Buenos Aires is definitely the place to be! Learn the language as you live and breathe the Argentinean lifestyle, whether you’re after a lesson in tango or a football fanatic, learning Spanish in Buenos Aires is a unique and enriching experience!
Put your medical skills to good use in the poverty-stricken and under resourced areas on the edges of Buenos Aires. The underprivileged residents of these areas have little or no access to health care facilities and your help can make all the difference.
