    Volunteer tourism or Voluntourism is a concept for those who want to experience the joy of travelling but also contribute to society in some way.  You can ‘do some good’ while holidaying in beautiful destinations. Voluntourism can last from a week to a few months. It all depends on what you want to do and how dedicated you are to the cause. India has some great voluntourism options and sees several foreigners take part in various programs every year. Voluntourism teaches you a lot about different cultures and leaves you with a feeling of gratitude. It’s a unique experience which has a lasting impact on your life. Here is a list of voluntourism opportunities in India to check out this year:

    1. 17000 Feet foundation:

    The name says it all. Yes you have the unique opportunity to teach school children in Ladakh at an altitude of 17,000 feet. You will live with a local Ladakhi family and spend your time travelling and teaching small children. It’s a rather competitive selection process but the experience is worth it. You can work in teaching, setting up libraries or even digitization of school infrastructure. This program is not for the unadventurous. Living in Ladakh for even a week is demanding and the terrain is challenging. You need to be mentally and physically fit to partake in this. Take a direct flight to Leh and begin your adventure! 

    2. WWOOF India:

    For those who want to get their hands dirty, become a voluntourist with WWOOF India to learn all about organic farming. You work on an organic farm for a few hours a day in return for delicious food, accommodation and knowledge of sustainable farming practices. The rest of the day is for you to explore the beautiful, lush Himalayan state of Uttarakhand! 

    3. Mandore Project  Jodhpur:

    Welcome to the blue city of India! Situated at the base of the mighty Mehrangarh fort, Jodhpur is a treat to the eyes. It’s a city soaked in historical heritage and culture. In spite of all its beauty, Jodhpur also suffers from water problems, oppression of socially and economically backward women and lack of proper education. Mandore project is an organization which helps tackle these issues. You can stay at the enchanting Mandore guesthouse and explore the city once done with your volunteering duties for the day. 

    4. Spiti Ecosphere:

    Spiti Valley is a cold desert valley situated high in the Himalayas. It’s home to the highest post office in the world. Spiti is not for the faint hearted. Oxygen content is low and the terrain is very challenging, but the beauty is incomparable. Spiti Ecosphere works on several issues such as uplifting the lives of local monks, tackling climate change in the region, wildlife conservation as well as studying local medicinal plants. You can also teach local school children about various environmental issues. 

    5. Andaman and Nicobar Islands Environmental Team (ANET):

    This one’s for the beach lovers. Andamans is known for its beautiful whitesand beaches and rich biodiversity. ANET is a research hub which addresses local wildlife conservation through education, data collection and research. If you are interested in projects such as forest rejuvenation,  better agricultural practices, water and electricity conservation, ANET is a great voluntourism opportunity. 

    There are several more voluntourism opportunities across the country. Start off with this list and explore the rest in time. And it’s not even that expensive. You only have to pay for flight tickets and related expenses which can easily be done on a no-cost EMI. Visit ZestMoney, to book flight tickets on EMI. Sign up and give in your details. Zest money will process your details and give you a credit score. Once done, book your flight tickets at no cost EMI . And that’s it. You’re all set to voluntour without eating into your savings.

    Pack now, pay later!

    One week of voluntourism will change your perspective towards life forever. Take the first step and become a voluntourist today!
