캄보디아에서 자원봉사하기

A Cambodia volunteer experience is surely one of the best ways to explore and understand a country as diverse and captivating as Cambodia! Whether volunteering abroad for the first time or as a returning VolSol alumnus, we can help kickstart your volunteering journey in Cambodia today! If you’re looking to make a lasting impact on our volunteer programs in Cambodia and truly become a global citizen, our teams are ready for you to get in touch and help find the perfect volunteering opportunity for you.

The ‘how’ in how to volunteer abroad in Cambodia is a pretty simple process that our team can guide you through. The hard part is choosing a program that you want to get involved in! Our Cambodia volunteer programs offer a breadth of opportunities to work with those in need of the support and contributions you can offer.

VolSol has many opportunities to volunteer with children in Cambodia if that’s what you’re interested in! If you’re hoping to make a difference in the generation of tomorrow, our Teaching English Volunteer Program would be a great fit for you. This is a fantastic program for budding educators and those hoping to work in child development. Your work will support the mainstream education system, and provide assistance to students who need an extra helping hand in their English language learning.

You can expect to create lesson plans, improve vocabulary and grammar knowledge, keep track of their progress through assessment, and provide a safe and captivating learning environment for the children! Volunteering in Cambodia as a teacher is a wonderfully rewarding experience, and your work will make a world of difference to the students, the teachers, and the school itself!

Thinking about other types of volunteer work in Cambodia? If you’re interested in working with children in childcare, we also have a wonderful opportunity for you! Our Childcare Volunteer program is a unique opportunity to work in child development away from the education sector. You will be working with children of all ages, from toddlers to teens! You can involve yourself in administrative tasks, routine housekeeping, as well as interacting with the children.

If you’re wanting to work with volunteer organisations in Cambodia, but not necessarily with children, our NGO Support Volunteer Program could be perfect for you! You will have a front row seat to understanding how these NGOs work and flourish in helping their local community! Cambodia has had a tragic and chequered past, with many people still facing human rights abuses and inequality in opportunity, making our partner NGOs a vital resource to many. Your work would be suited to your abilities and skills, especially if you have a specialty that is hard to come by! You can expect to help with administrative work, conceptualise and strategise ideas for improvement, and aim at sustainable growth! What’s not to like?

Volunteer travel in Cambodia has grown so much in recent years, and we are looking to provide sustainable options for you! Still don’t think the above fits the bill for what you want to do? Are you a medical or nursing student/qualified professional looking to make a difference? Our medical volunteering program in Cambodia might just be the perfect program for you!

Our medical program is best suited to those with strong prior knowledge of medicine/nursing, so final year students and qualified professionals will find this to be an eye-opening and enriching experience!

Our volunteering opportunities in Cambodia are based in the capital, Phnom Penh. Located at the confluence of two major rivers, the Mekong and Tonle Sap, it is a fascinating city, with a more fascinating history.

Whilst it is now a large and bustling metropolis, you may still see signs of the turbulent and tragic past, with many inhabitants still old enough to remember the Khmer Rouge. The blend of old and new creates a rich and enthralling environment to volunteer in, with many opportunities to dive into a new culture and understand a new way of life.

Cambodia has a diverse range of volunteering projects to choose from. Here’s what we have on offer:

• NGO Support Program Cambodia
• Teaching English Program Cambodia
• Childcare Program Cambodia
• Medical Volunteering Cambodia

Apart from that, a Criminal Background Check Report is essential for volunteers who are joining Childcare, or Teaching programs. And you should be empathic towards the animals if you want to volunteer for wildlife conservation programs.

Like everywhere else around the world, volunteering in Cambodia comes for a minimal fee, which also covers your airport pickup, accommodation, and pre-departure booklet that contains all the information to get you started on your volunteering journey!. Other than that, youll also be provided with meals, pick up and drop from the project site to your accommodation, and most importantly, there will be 24/7 in-country support.

However, you can always fundraise to pay for your meaningful volunteer trip and experience the goodness of travelling abroad to make a difference.

We have had volunteer programs in Cambodia for almost 17 years! Since our inception in 2007, we have sent over 21,000 volunteers to over 25 destinations across the world! We have much experience in providing unforgettable volunteering experiences across the world, and our excellence in the field is a testament to that!

We know what volunteers look for regarding safety and security during their stay. All of our accommodation is located in safe areas, with 24/7 support from VolSol staff. You will be provided with a full orientation about the country, the city, and the local area to ensure you are as best informed as you can be!

Our pre-departure booklet provides comprehensive information about the do’s and don’ts of the area, and how best to respect the cultures and traditions of your destination of choice!

Phnom Penh is a large capital city with many amenities available. If you lose or forget something, you will be able to find a replacement quite easily! However, here are some key items we think you may need:

• A small bum bag to keep your valuables nearby and handy when on the project and in your free time! Nothing worse than having to hold your phone the whole time.
• Insect repellent that contains DEET. Cambodia has a tropical climate, and with that comes insects! If you’re prone to being bitten, a strong insect repellent is always a great addition. DEET is what keeps those pesky bugs away, so make sure you get some that contains it.

Like many other Southeast Asian countries, Cambodia has two seasons., dry and rainy. The dry season runs from November to May, which is when you will experience the best of the sunshine, as well as higher temperatures!

That’s not to say that all throughout the rainy season there is no sun. Both rain and bright weather can happen during either season, so don’t feel let down by either!

We welcome volunteers from all over the world and different walks of life! We firmly believe that diversity and inclusion can only make the world a better place. We want to champion global citizens with an international vision and a deep commitment to the betterment of our society. Our volunteers should be compassionate, enthusiastic about change, diligent, and open-minded.

Our projects cater to group volunteering in Cambodia, as well as family volunteering groups, student volunteering, gap year travellers, as well as teenage travellers looking to expand their horizons.

Short term volunteering is a breeze with us! Our volunteer programs in Cambodia start at a minimum duration of 2 weeks, so that you can make the greatest impact possible!

You can truly make a lasting impact and travel sustainably. You can switch between projects, offering your skills and hard work up to the projects that need it! All hands on deck is our unofficial motto.

We have many options to keep you busy during your long term volunteering trip! We work with local travel providers to help organise unforgettable trips around Phnom Penh and the rest of the country!

Of course! Whilst visiting a new country and city, you will most certainly want to enjoy all of the sights it has on offer. Cambodia is full of incredible landmarks for you to visit!

You can spend your evenings after the project traversing the streets, exploring the markets and other hidden gems in the Cambodian capital. The recent violent history of the country can be seen right in the heart of the city, where you can visit Choeung Ek - The Killing Fields - where millions of Cambodian people lost their lives during the 1970’s. Guided tours and museums will help illustrate this dark past even further, and help you fully appreciate how far Cambodia has come since this time.

Over the weekend, you can enjoy a trip to Angkor Wat, an ancient complex of temples dating back to the 12th century. You will see the marks of history here, with soldiers using the complex as a shelter during the Cambodian Civil War and Khmer Rouge. Bullet holes can be seen from that era.

You can also explore the natural beauty Cambodia has on offer, with a cruise along the mighty Mekong River. You will see the blend of city life and wildlife, and how people live in tandem with the river. We also provide a trip to Sihanoukville, a beautiful beachside town where you can soak up the rays on soft white sand, next to the turquoise waters of the sea.

You really can pack all of this into one trip! Travelling sustainably can include so much more than what you previously thought.
