What to Expect
Youth and University Trips are designed to take you off the beaten track. Experience a new culture and make memories to last a lifetime.
Trip Length
Typical trips are one to two weeks long. Volunteers will often add an additional week to explore the country, learn how to surf, climb a mountain or study the local language The timing of the project can be customized to the needs of the team. While summer break is a popular time for Youth and University trips, they can be planned for any time of the year.
Youth & University Groups
Group sizes can vary from eight to 20 people, ranging in ages of 17 to 30 year’s old. DWC will work with team leaders and volunteers to plan a project that meets the unique makeup of the team.
Please note that all our group volunteer programs can be tailor-made to meet the requirements of various international curriculum.
Make an Impact
Teams may construct a rural classroom, support a conservation project, or build a struggling mom a home. Projects are based on real needs in our host communities, designed with DWC’s field partners. Volunteers will gain incredible insights into our host community and return home with a new perspective.
