Introduction to Volunteering Opportunities

Azafady offers a number of unique and challenging volunteer placements in Madagascar. Whether your passion is sustainable community development or vital conservation work, Azafady can offer you an unforgettable experience.

Whichever programme you choose, you will be benefiting from Azafady's extensive experience of working in Madagascar with each scheme led by an award-winning team of project leaders. No particular skills are required to volunteer with us and training is given locally but if you do have particular experience in areas relevant to your projects this will enhance your contribution.

By volunteering with us it could help you to choose a new direction in life or to develop a career path you may already be on. It could be both a personal highlight and a practical stepping stone in a gap year or, for anyone at any time, a great way to go abroad for much more than just a holiday.
