Volunteer
in Nepal With Vsn Nepal
The mission and objective of the VSN
Nepal Volunteer Program in Nepal is to encourage and invite
International/National volunteers to contribute to community development,
education development, as well as health and environmental activities of the
Nepali people. Our programs in Nepal promote the volunteering opportunity in
Nepal for individuals to build international links and mutual friendship,
through a global partnership. It is our belief that through hard-work and
positive thinking, we can all help to improve cultural tolerance and encourage
world peace.It is of course better to have previous working experience but NO
EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY to take part in most of the programs and VSN Nepal
strongly encourages all applicants who have a positive outlook and a strong
desire to help improve Nepal. All volunteers will enjoy a unique opportunity
for travel, adventure and exploration (both natural beauty and
self-exploration).
Volunteers will experience life in Nepal first-hand, working alongside Nepali
people to help support local communities in Nepal. In this way, volunteers will
make a meaningful contribution to a disadvantaged segment of the world
community, while participating in a cultural exchange with local people who
will ultimately be responsible for sustainable development.
Voluntary work in Nepal can be an extremely rewarding and life-changing
experience. Upon arrival, and throughout their stay, volunteers will receive a
warm welcome from the Adventure Travel in Nepal people, who are famous for their honesty and hospitality.
Volunteers will live and work in one of the world's most diverse countries,
with geography that ranges from the peak of the Himalaya to the tropical heat
of the flat Terai; from the chaos of Kathmandu to the tranquillity of rural
villages.

Program Aim
The Volunteer Society Nepal Volunteer Program aims to assist the sustainable
development of under-developed Nepali communities, through projects aimed at
children, youth and women. Programs are co-ordinated through rural government
schools and community-based programs, with community-based programs Classic
Rock Bands often initiated with
the help of VSN, volunteers and local community members.
The Volunteer Program achieves its aim by initiating and/or assisting with
sustainable community-based project development, concentrating on raising local
awareness of fundamental social issues, including education, health and
sanitation and conservation.
The process of community development is slow in Nepal, despite the efforts of
the government and rural NGOs. This fact makes the need for motivated
volunteers even greater. Few villages in Nepal have basic sanitation
facilities, resulting in widespread basic health problems, such as malnutrition
and the spread of water-borne diseases. Thus, volunteers play a key role in
increasing the ability of communities to address these issues.
Volunteers participate in creating sustainable community groups, such as youth
groups, student groups and women's groups, and will work very closely with
partner NGOs, who are already working in the field on specific issues,
utilizing their expertise and experience.
Volunteering abroad is also an excellent opportunity for personal and
professional growth and development, and can provide a sense of individual
freedom. Volunteering in Nepal, especially in rural Nepal, can be a once in a
lifetime opportunity. Volunteering in Nepal is fun, personally challenging and
adventurous, but throughout your placement you will enjoy the support of our
highly experienced staff at VSN Nepal , who are dedicated to ensuring the well-being
of all volunteers.
Volunteer Society Nepal invites
organisations, individuals, couples, groups, students and experts, as well as
senior and young professionals to make a great contribution and bring changes

Volunteering in Nepal is a once in a lifetime opportunity for all of you who
wish to undertake a meaningful journey and do their bit towards making this
world a better place for all. With numerous volunteer work opportunities such
as Watercolor Basics serving poor children and women, teaching languages,
working on health projects, conservation work, etc., you will get to spend time
in three of the bustling cities of Nepal - Kathmandu (capital), Pokhara, and
Chitwan. Of course, volunteering in Nepal requires you to be patient,
open-minded, and humble when interacting and working with the locals.
Types Of Projects Available
Though there are several volunteer programs
available in Nepal, some of the most common ones (which have a higher demand
for volunteers) are supporting local orphanages, local schools, teaching
English, and working with health centers. Almost all volunteering in Nepal
projects are available in Chitwan, Pokhara, and Kathmandu.
As a part of volunteering in Nepal, you have the opportunity to choose the kind
of project you are interested to volunteer in. The different types of volunteer
projects available in Nepal include:
Teaching English: This volunteering in Nepal program requires, volunteers to be
placed in various local schools to teach conversation and level English to
Nepali children. Just as English is an important skill for a good job placement
in the world, Compostela Pilgrimage is no different. The requirement of English
speaking work force is on the rise in the country. To teach Nepali children
English, you don't require any formal teaching qualification. However, you do
need a good command of spoken as well as written English, lot of patience, and
unquenchable enthusiasm.
Children's Homes: In Nepal, volunteers will get the opportunity to act as a big
brother or sister to many of the Nepali orphans who live in orphanages across
the country. You will also be required to help with cleaning, gardening, doing
repairs, planning activities etc.
Health Education: Health education volunteering in Nepal means working closely
with children's homes. The key focus area is on preventative measures by
educating Nepali children about regular basic health check-ups, administering
necessary childhood immunizations, personal hygiene, and sanitation as a
disease prevention method. For this program, you need to be either a medical
student or an advanced degree holder in medicine.
Community Maintenance Program: This involves practical application in village
settings. Some of the community maintenance projects include painting or
plastering, however, those of you with additional skill sets can help in more
advanced work. You'll get to work alongside villagers, learning about
traditional methods of building and working.
Home Stay/Cultural Exchange: A short volunteering program, this is also a
wonderful way to get the best value out of your time in Nepal. You will be
staying with a Nepali family in a small rural village or even within a city.
During the duration of your stay you will learn about all aspects of Nepali
culture, lifestyle, food, as well as attend couple of hours of language
sessions twice in the day.
