AboutVolunteer

“Meet the World - volunteer for change", is a cultural and language exchange program through which you can work as a volunteer in Morocco. The volunteers will stay with their host families or organizations as language tutors helping them improve their language, meanwhile, the volunteers are expected to engage with the Moroccan society by working at local youth centers, orphanage, student centers as well as taking part in MasterPeace Morocco activities. Giving conversational or spoken language lessons for 4 hours per day to the host family and doing social work allow our volunteers to have better understanding of the Moroccan lifestyle and their culture in addition to having free weekends that give you a chance to go around and see the diverse Moroccan cities and make local friends. This is a unique opportunity to develop both professional and personal experiences since no teaching experience is required.
