Volunteer short term in Rajasthan, and turn your few weeks in India into the experience of a lifetime, packed with volunteer work, intercultural experiences, and fascinating excursions!

After your arrival in New Delhi and a good night’s sleep, your next stop is Agra, where you’ll tour the world-famous mausoleum, the Taj Mahal. Once you’ve marvelled over the snow-white towers of this remarkable structure, you will go on a tiger safari before travelling to your short-term volunteer placement in Rajasthan. After a quick introduction to your volunteer project, you’ll begin to volunteer short term in Rajasthan right away.

Construction, Renovation, and Social Projects

In this 2 to 3-week volunteer programme, unlike our other programmes in Rajasthan, you will not participate in teaching projects – but there are still many areas for you to contribute in India! Renovation projects, in which you’ll plaster, paint, and decorate local facilities, such as day-care centres, are perfect tasks for short term volunteers in Rajasthan. Other work includes:

  • Plastering and painting walls in a children’s day-care centre,
  • Renovating and improving facilities and playground equipment ,
  • Tending to a school garden and improving sport fields.

You can also get involved in social-development projects as a short term volunteer in Rajasthan, educating locals about nutrition and health issues, such as HIV-prevention, or explaining how important a good education is for a child.
