    Overview

    Kaya Responsible Travel offer volunteer and internship placements on over 150 sustainable community development and environmental initiatives in Asia, Africa and Latin America.

    Volunteer placements for under 18’s are selected to provide a greater level of supervision for participants, with the same impactful work as all our Kaya projects. 

    With Kaya, your age shouldn’t stand in the way! We have over 30 under 18 volunteer abroad opportunities available to 16 and 17-year-olds, across our most popular countries – check these out below – and a special summer teen volunteer program for 13-15 year old in South Africa.

    What’s more, if you’d like to become an under 18 volunteer, but have a friend or family member who is over 18 to volunteer with you, then they can act as your legal guardian on a number of our programs. We appreciate the dedication and eagerness that younger volunteers bring to our projects and, where possible, we work to lower our age limits.
