About Destination and Volunteer Opportunities

About France

France is a country in northwestern Europe with access to the Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, the Alps and the Pyrenees. It is in terms of history and culture among the most important countries in the Western world.

Volunteer Opportunities in France

France is a country with a developed healthcare system and infrastructure, but it also has problems with poverty and social exclusion. Volunteer programs in France are therefore focused on providing basic services to vulnerable populations, particularly in urban areas. Concerning its cultural heritage, you can join a construction project – the restoration of historical heritage.
