Volunteering Opportunities and Responsible Tourism in Uganda 🇺🇬

Welcome to Uganda, the “Pearl of Africa” and an amazing destination for volunteer travellers who wish to explore some of the most stunning natural sites in the world. From the majestic peaks of the Moon Mountains to the banks of the Nile, from Kampala to Lake Victoria, Uganda is a land of breathtaking beauty, where wildlife parks abound and the sunsets are unforgettable. By volunteering in Uganda, you’ll not only have an opportunity to witness the wonders of nature, but you’ll also experience a different culture and a unique way of life. Uganda’s people are proud, hospitable, and always eager to share and learn from their guests.

Volunteer in Uganda

This page lists a variety of volunteering opportunities in Uganda. Some of these opportunities offer free food and accommodation in exchange for voluntary work, while others require a daily or monthly contribution fee for food. Please note that many areas of Uganda are still developing, and volunteering may not always be a “free” endeavour. We encourage you to read the announcements carefully before applying.

How to use this page

Click on the announcement that interests you and check the publication date to ensure that the opportunity is still valid. Look for the contact details section at the end of the listing description to find ways to get in touch with the hosts, such as their website, email, phone number, or application form. Once you contact the host/organization, please be patient and wait for a reply.

If you encounter any issues or have questions, please feel free to report back to us.
