Overseas volunteering for young people

Restless Development

The opportunity

ICS will offer young people aged 18-22 and 23+ the opportunity to spend 12 weeks in countries in Africa or Asia, utilizing their skills to tackle some of the most pressing issues facing young people in these regions and contributing to meaningful development overseas.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity that we want all young British citizens to have access to. ICS will provide young people not only the opportunity to learn about a new environment and global issues, but also equip them with key life skills which will remain with them long after their return to the UK supporting their career development plans. The content of each placement will vary depending on the specific context but all placements will include structured training and support in-country

Skills/Qualifications

Participants do not need to have any prior experience or qualifications, nor should cost be a barrier. The amount each young person will need to contribute to take up a placement will depend on their individual financial situation. Some places will be fully funded, whilst others will be asked to fundraise some money towards the cost of their placement.
