We Always:
- Hire local staff to run our programmes
- Use locally owned accommodation and transport
- Source food locally to help small traders
- Pay our staff fairly
- Invest in our staff by providing quality training and development opportunities
There are no ivory towers at African Adventures, and no British staff based in-country. Our volunteer programmes are always run by local staff who were born and raised in the country you’ll visit.
Why is this so important? Well, it means you’ll benefit from local knowledge when you travel, it’ll keep your experience authentic, and it means our operation directly benefits the communities we work in.
