Inter-Cultural Youth Exchange (ICYE UK) is an ethical<br />

volunteering charity which believes in a world where the<br />

sharing of cultures and ideas is embraced, celebrated and<br />

lived. We work in partnership with an international network of<br />

locally managed ICYE organisations to provide international<br />

volunteer opportunities that directly benefit local communities<br />

and encourage young people from around the world to live,<br />

learn and work together.<br />

Volunteers support local projects throughout Africa, Latin<br />

America, Europe and Asia for 3 weeks to 12 months. Projects<br />

include human rights and women’s rights work, disability<br />

support, HIV and AIDS awareness, education projects, environmental<br />

conservation, community development and more.<br />

ICYE UK volunteers receive extensive training both before<br />

departure and on-arrival, and ongoing support. We invest in<br />

volunteer’s personal development as our returned volunteer<br />

camp provides guidance on how to market new skills and<br />

write an impressive CV.<br />

No previous experience required but we are keen to find<br />

volunteers who value a true cultural immersion. This is a<br />

fantastic opportunity for those looking to experience development<br />

in action.<br />
