Global Vision International

This is another organization that provides flexible and customizable abroad experiences. There are volunteer and internship opportunities that can last as little as 2 weeks or as much as more than 6 months. They have projects offered on very continent (except for Antarctica). They also have "expeditions" which seems to be a combination of volunteering and tourism with a group, they mostly focus on environmental and wildlife themes but there are community expeditions.

Global Brigades

A fellow classmate found this organization. They provide services focused in medical fields but also law and development!

They seem to emphasize on university student involvement and are open to starting local chapter clubs on campuses.



UCLA apparently has their own Medical Brigades! Facebook Medical Brigades page
