Volunteer Asia Health Related Projects

Completing a medical internship in Asia is a particularly attractive prospect for pre-med students in the West, where opportunities to work this closely with medical professionals and their patients are nil. And honestly, how many of your of peers can say they jetted halfway around the world to join the brigade in one of the world’s fastest-growing wellness hubs?

While this is one of our more challenging projects, it is also one of our most rewarding. Nepal still struggles with preventable diseases and ailments such as diarrhea, leprosy and tuberculosis, while malnutrition and high infant mortality rates remain serious concerns. Our Nepal volunteers make a real and lasting contribution to the prevention of these problems among Nepal’s most vulnerable, and can see the fruits of their labor first-hand. Participation in our health project is an experience that will stays with our volunteers for the rest of their lives.
