Join
International Volunteer HQ, the world’s leading volunteer travel organization, on the
Health Education project in Bali. You will will gain experience in Health Education and teaching, and the local community will be better equipped to take care of their own wellbeing, helping them live healthier lives with improved access to relevant medical care.
You’ll be staying in volunteer houses, located about 15 minutes’ drive from central Ubud. Set in small villages, it’s a great place to see typical Balinese life. Living conditions are comfortable and all volunteer houses have fans in the bedrooms. Volunteers can expect to share a dormitory-style room with three to seven other volunteers. These bedrooms are separated by gender. The bathroom is shared with a hot water shower and western toilets.
There are
start dates every Monday throughout the year.
While volunteer schedules depend on the particular projects and placements, a typical day might look like this:
8:00 AM Breakfast at the volunteer house
9:00 AM Volunteers spend 1 to 2 hours planning for their projects.
12:00 PM Lunch
1:00 PM Volunteers head to their placements.
5:00 PM Work at the project usually ends. Volunteers are free to travel back to their accommodation, go sightseeing, or do some shopping.
7:00 PM Dinner at the volunteer house.
Weekends are left for free time and exploration.
This program ranges from 1-12 weeks. Your fully-hosted experience includes airport pick-up, orientation, accommodation, meals and 24/7 support. Detailed pricing information for your duration is available
on our website.
Your Impact
Learning basic health practices at a young age can go a long way in supporting the wellbeing of children throughout their lives. Volunteers teaching these important skills can make a meaningful difference to children in underserved communities who may not otherwise have access to this kind of information and suffer for it.
As a Health Education volunteer, you’ll play an active role in the promotion of better health and wellbeing among young people. You’ll be based in schools in Ubud and teach basic hygiene and health skills. You’ll need to plan your lessons and get creative to keep the students engaged, remembering they will have limited English. Topics can include:
- Brushing teeth and oral health
- Washing hands
- General body cleanliness
- Nutrition
