Volunteer Cameroon

It's been said that nobody has really been to Africa if they haven't been to Cameroon. Well, it's been said by the Cameroon tourist industry at least! Actually if you are considering some volunteer work in Cameroon leave time to explore this lesser known area of Africa with its contrasts between waterfalls, sea and desert; its abundance of animals, safari opportunities and rich cultural heritage. Bear in mind a couple of things; firstly transport infrastructure is underdeveloped where it exists at all; most people in Cameroon have an outright distrust of anyone taking photographs and the local officials have been known to be obstructive unless you are willing to bribe them! Apart from that...

Please note that many volunteer opportunities in Cameroon were disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic which led to the permanent closure of some volunteer opportunities and restrictions on others. Hopefully things are now beginning to return to normal. If you run or know of a volunteer work project in Cameroon let us know by contacting us here. We look forward to hearing from you!
