Depending on which role you choose, you could help to increase a community's access to safe drinking water, or help to protect valuable local cultures. You might also design an adventure challenge to train young volunteers.

Not only will you help our young volunteers to develop personally, you'll also learn new skills and increase your cultural awareness. You may have chances to meet new people who'll become your lifelong friends.

This summer we have both 4-week and 7-week programmes:

Country Schedule 4-week programmes 7-week programmes Algeria 5 Jul. - 1 Aug. 20 Jun. - 7 Aug. Egypt 24 Jul. - 20 Aug. 19 Jun. - 6 Aug. Kenya 20 Jul. - 16 Aug. 18 Jun. - 5 Aug. South Africa 2 Aug. - 29 Aug. 15 Jun. - 2 Aug.

GDA ensures that volunteers work with community members and local project partners where our help is needed. All our projects aim to promote the development of poor and remote communities.

There is no other chance like a GDA programme. Join us as a volunteer manager to develop your own skills while bringing benefits to the communities.

Housework is a frequent source of conflict between lazy husbands and their hard-working wives, but women have been warned not to expect men to pull their weight any time soon.

A study from Oxford University has found that men are unlikely to be doing an equal share of housework before 2050. Mothers, the researchers warned, will continue to shoulder the burden of childcare and housework for the next four decades, largely because housework such as cleaning and cooking is still regarded as "women's work".
