Description:

As a United Planet Global Health volunteer, you’ll gain valuable insight into the unique healthcare challenges facing other countries and forge connections with healthcare professionals around the globe. We place students, professionals, and non-professionals alike at projects focusing on general medicine, dental care, physical therapy, speech therapy, psychiatry, and more.

Contribute your time in a meaningful way to the global community, while honing vital and valuable skills.

Please note that we accept volunteers of all experience levels at most of our Global Health projects. Volunteers with more experience and proper certification will be able to assist with more involved procedures, while volunteers with less experience will gain important global perspectives on healthcare practices in different cultures by interacting with and observing doctors and nurses.
