Volunteering in Namibia

With volunteer work in Namibia, we enable our volunteers to do social projects or work in the wildlife sector! In addition to your volunteer work in Namibia, you have the opportunity to explore adventurous bushland, lonely dune landscapes and bizarrely rugged rock formations. As one of the most biodiverse countries on earth, you also have the chance to marvel at lions, leopards, elephants, buffalo, rhinos, antelopes, giraffes and many other animals in the wild! Namibia's wildlife is so impressive that photographers from all over the world will find countless motifs for high-contrast and impressive wildlife photos.

Volunteering in Namibia at a glance

Your destination country Namibia

Not only natural wonders and biodiversity fascinate in Namibia. Immerse yourself in the hustle and bustle of the capital Windhoek! In Namibia you get a mix of everything - art, music, sports, cuisine and religions of the numerous ethnic groups living together peacefully here.

As a volunteer in Namibia you will learn to interact with different people, really feel the African joie de vivre and above all you will be able to take responsibility for yourself and for other people or tasks. If you work in a social project during your volunteer work in Namibia, you will realize how much can be achieved with just a few resources. However, Namibia is also a country where the contrasts between rich and poor are omnipresent. Our team leader Steffi tackles these contradictions by selecting innovative social aid projects for our volunteers. The Soup Kitchen and the After School Club are just a few of the projects where your commitment is needed! Detailed descriptions can be found in the respective projects.

Volunteering in Namibia – Here we go

With the endless expanses of Namibia, a - perhaps unknown - feeling of freedom becomes palpable. Your English will certainly improve through contact with the locals. Your stay abroad, which in a way is also a language trip, follows the motto: Learning by doing. When you return home after volunteering in Namibia, you will definitely appreciate many little things that you previously took for granted.
