SCI's Long Term Volunteering (LTV) program gives you the opportunity to stay abroad from 3 to 12 months. There are many possibilities, such as working with disabled people, disadvantaged youth or ethnic minorities, support daily activities in an ecological community, a local SCI office, or an orphanage.
Long Term Volunteering is more then work, it is the experience of living abroad and learning from different cultures and people, while getting deeply involved with a concrete project that is for the benefit of the local community.
The term LTV is used in SCI to refer to all the volunteers committed to a project for more than two months. LTV's are provided with food and accommodation and some pocket money and are covered by a basic SCI health insurance. Travel costs to the project are generally covered by the volunteer him/herself. There are no age limits to be an LTV. If you are interested in becoming an LTV please contact your
local branch.
