GROUP PROGRAMS ABROAD

At Kaya we offer volunteer, internship and study abroad programs around the world that are suitable for university, school, corporate and social groups.

Customized Group Volunteer Programs

All of our programs focus on our commitment to sustainable, ethical and meaningful travel. Whether you are looking for opportunities to volunteer with friends, a club, through your academic institution or even with your colleagues, Kaya can develop a tailored itinerary that utilizes your skills, interests and group needs.

Our volunteer groups are highly valued, and have the opportunity to make a long and sustainable impact. We are able to develop shorter programs, some can be as short as 1 week in length, which is generally not possible for individual volunteers. Although a shorter program might suit your group better the impact is felt no less, as groups of volunteers can achieve amazing things in a relatively short period of time.

Why plan your program with Kaya?

Kaya programs are safe, well-organized, relevant and affordable options for your students. These key considerations shape our program development as we work together to bring academic learning outside of the classroom. Through ongoing work in our locations, we provide your participants with hands-on experiences that deliver cultural immersion, positive impact on local communities and activities relevant to your course – allowing students to travel and grow as responsible, educated, global citizens.

Group volunteer placements can be arranged for nearly all of our projects, and if you have a specific idea of the goals and needs of the group we can help to organize a fantastic program for you! If you are unsure of the best project for the group, we do offer a number of projects that have been specifically tailor made for groups, keeping in mind the importance of times, location and impact. Furthermore, a Kaya team member would be happy to help you begin the process and answer any questions you might have!

Group Volunteer Examples

We understand that each groups has unique objectives. We are able to accommodate and create itineraries for any bespoken needs or specific interests from community to conservation. A few examples of the projects we supported via the participation of groups include:

UNIVERSITY GROUPS

Put study into practice and get real life experience in your field of study. Group programs are an invaluable and purposeful addition to any CV or relevant experience. Group programs are an opportunity to get practical applications in your field of specialism while learning from others.

School and college volunteer group building a structure

SCHOOL & COLLEGE GROUPS

One of the best ways to learn is to often get involved and have experiences outside the classroom. Group projects can benefit students of all ages. Kaya can arrange projects that will suit the needs and objectives of the program.
