Gap year work experience, career training, internships and volunteer programmes

More and more people are choosing not to simply be spectators when travelling abroad, but to take part in deeper and richer engagements with their new surroundings.

See More. Do More - this is WAVA's mantra, and with structured projects in over 20 countries around the world we are able to cater for a whole host of authentic travel experiences - community and conservation volunteering, Gap Year trips, work placements, internships and career breaks.

WAVA's Super 6 is a balanced selection of low-priced programmes, chosen especially with the participant in mind. Some are programmes which directly benefit overseas projects in serious need of assistance, and others are programmes that are known to give participants a very high degree of satisfaction.
