College Students
We have a whole host of projects that are directly relevant to undergraduate subjects and can provide a group of students with an unparalleled and unforgettable experience. Our Conservation & Environment projects are perfect for Geography, Zoology, Biology or Marine Biology students who are looking to get some practical experience. Those pursuing English or Media Studies will flourish on one of our Journalism placements.

Our Sports projects are a great way for Sports and Sports Medicine students to gain experience of sports development. We have placements for Drama students and Language students, not to mention a host of Medicine & Healthcare placements for training medics, physical therapists, occupational therapists, nurses, midwives and dentists, as well as many others!

Corporate groups
Why not combine a team-building exercise with a project that will enhance your organization’s Corporate Social Responsibility? We have many projects where we can bring people together, working for the benefit of others in the developing world. In the past we have sent professionals out to Care Projects where they have worked in orphanages, playing with the children and developing facilities. We have also sent colleagues on Community Housing Projects, where they have helped to build homes for indigenous people in rural communities.

Sports groups, music societies or other arts groups
If you would like to participate in an overseas tour where you can really put your skills to good use then we have a whole host of projects where you can coach, teach or otherwise impart knowledge to enthusiastic groups of children and adults in the developing world.

"St. Mildred's-Lightbourn School has developed a close partnership with Projects Abroad since 2005 in support of its extensive experiential learning program.

To date SMLS girls have worked in Mexico, Ghana, Morocco, Argentina, Thailand and Mongolia. They have experienced an extensive range of voluntary placements in the the fields of care and community, teaching, turtle conservation, medicine and marine conservation. The opportunity to learn about a world very different from their own in a safe and supportive environment is the hallmark of a Projects Abroad experience. This company offers a complete experience with impressive attention to detail from start to finish. The professionalism of the PA staff, both in the field and at head offices, is commendable, reliable and totally reassuring to both school administrators and parents as we coordinate these wonderful experiences for our students.

We take every opportuity to recommend Projects Abroad to like-minded educators and look forward to further developing our relationship and programming with Projects Abroad in the coming years."
Judy Ross, Director of External Studies at St. Mildred's-Lightbourn School
