Thailand Hill Tribe Volunteer

Thailand Hill Tribe Volunteer Role

You will be able to spend time familiarising yourself with the AKHA people and their traditions throughout your stay in Northern Thailand.

The work on this project will be really diverse; you could be helping with anything from constructing community buildings to teaching the community children English and will be working closely with the local villagers depending on the needs of the whole community. You will also have time to visit and experience local markets and help with local initiatives as they are founded.

This project requires volunteers to be creative, independent and unafraid to use their initiative – what you do is up to you and what the community and the project needs you to do at the time!
