Explore all that India has to offer while contributing to a worthwhile hands on development project with local organizations. Home to 28 ethnically diverse states, each with its own music, dance, architecture, and food, India offers visitors immense diversity. You will work side by side with community members and local NGOs on self-determined projects which may include school construction, education assistance, reforestation and more. This spiritual and cultural hub is a great location for personal and professional exploration.
Interns work within the community and one of our affiliated non-governmental organizations (NGO's), government social programs or a self-initiated project. Projects are determined by community need as well as interns' skills and interests. Interns can expect a mutually beneficial experience as part of real, sustainable development and professional growth. A designated Project Coordinator guides each intern through the project planning, execution, and conclusion phases of their program.
In addition, interns enjoy a flexible program structure which allows them to gradually increase their level of immersion. Living with a local family and cultural visits and events enhance immersion in the local culture. Excursions include visits to palaces and temples, trips to national parks, weekend development projects, cultural classes, and remote community cultural festivals.
Accommodations are provided in furnished rooms in houses, oftentimes separate from direct contact with the host family. Other home stays are available outside of Udaipur and have meals and direct contact with the host family.
