You will find that there is plenty of opportunity for ethical travel in Eastern Europe. Once part of the Soviet Empire, the region's social care infrastructures are very poorly developed. Our ethical travel projects in Eastern Europe are intended to assist the improvements being made to social care for children, particularly in institutions such as orphanages or schools.
Here are some of our Eastern Europe ethical travel options:
Ethical Travel in Eastern Europe Orphanages - We have some very worthwhile programmes in Ukraine, Russia and Moldova working in orphanages, caring for the children and teaching them useful life-skills.

of projects and summer camps teaching these and cultural subjects like arts, music and drama.
