An Overview of our Volunteer Program |
Volunteer Bali is dedicated to provide educational opportunities equally for Indonesian people, children and adults. For several years we have provided a wide range of educational services to various rural villages of Bali. In doing this our volunteers have taught English, art, and life skills to the Indonesian children and adults in the areas where we work. We strongly believe that it is important to work is assistance and cooperation with local communities, therefore local leaders, educational figures and families are also involved with our programs. Volunteer Bali originated as a BCP (The Bali Children’s Project) program, however this has now been expanded to include a highly successful independent volunteer program Under IDEP. The program provides training and placement for volunteers to teach English in rural communities in Bali. We take great pride in our volunteers, who form an essential part of our programs. In addition to teaching English in classrooms, we have a number of other volunteer positions in several developing projects. These volunteers will be assisting in designing a teacher-training program, environmental program, curriculum design, and office management work. |
Our program philosophy is twofold. Our first and foremost priority is to serve the educational needs of the Balinese communities in which we work. These needs are met through our well-qualified and dedicated volunteers. Our volunteers are committed to their work and teaching. It is the hopes of Volunteer Bali that our volunteers also receive a unique and integrative experience in the villages. Our volunteers have the opportunity to live with Balinese families and immerse themselves fully into local culture and language. This experience is extremely valuable as it brings our volunteers beyond ‘tourist life’ in the heart of Balinese community, religion, and family life. From this our volunteers take with them a rich and memorable experience that they will always remember. Working with the Volunteer Bali is a unique opportunity to experience life in Bali, share your expertise, and contribute to a very important educational goal. Pride in our volunteers is the foundation of our project and its success. |
