GVI - Volunteer Abroad Programmes

Why GVI?

We know that you can’t be boxed in. You’ve got your own ideas and ideals, but one thing’s for sure – you want to contribute to a better future.

You love to get outdoors, but want more than just a holiday. With the climate crisis intensifying, you have a fierce drive to preserve and protect nature, but want to experience untamed adventures too.

You’re keen to build your career in nature conservation, but want to see the theory come to life by getting up close and personal with intricate ecosystems. To learn directly from scientists, experts, animals and organisms in the wild, while making lifelong friends with like-minded change-makers from all over the world.

You’re eager to have the best time of your life, and at the same time be part of something really impactful. To play your part to help our planet.

Yes, it’s a lot. But that’s the thing. With GVI, you can experience all of it.
