Spotlight On...Venezuela

By Flickr user ruurmo
Each week we bring you a roundup of what you can find on our site related to a specific country, region, or city. Today we spotlight Venezuela.

Searching Idealist today, I found 429 organizations (listed in English and Spanish) based in Venezuela that work on biodiversity, sustainable development, empowering women, disease prevention, involving universities in social change, and much, much more.

There are currently 14 opportunities listed to volunteer in Venezuela. You could travel with a mobile classroom, assist medical professionals in a hospital, do construction and renovations using ecologically-friendly building materials, or help run an intercultural exchange program.

482 Venezuelans have made personal profiles on Idealist, and they have already started 8 local Idealist Groups.
