Mission Statement Otra Cosa Network is a non-profit NGO that offers a variety of affordable and satisfying volunteering opportunities in Peru to well-motivated volunteers from around the world. Our volunteers support the needs of our community-run partner projects. Our Peruvian office is based outside of Trujillo on the coast of Northern Peru. Many of our projects are local to us, but we now also offer projects in various locations around Northern Peru. We offer projects teaching English, working with women and children, in clinics, in shanty-towns, and many more.
Volunteer Duties We have several open positions for volunteers in northern Peru. Positions run for a minimum of one month and volunteers can choose how long they want to serve. Some of our current available roles are: Teaching at a Shanty Town School Teach English Support Women Suffering from Domestic Violence Helping out at Local Clinic and Health Offices Assistant at a Local Day Nursery Assistant at Home for Ex-Street Children Psychology/Social Worker at Home for Ex-Street Children Teaching Assistant at a School for Special Needs Children Fair Trade Postcard Photography Project Empower Local Women Helping Out at the Skate Ramp Otra Cosa Network Office Volunteer (learn how an NGO works in the field!)

Notes

Qualifications: Spanish ability required varies by position. Some positions do not require any Spanish skills. We can help you arrange Spanish classes with local teachers or inter-cambio classes (you teach someone English, they teach you Spanish and there is no fee). We also help arrange affordable housing. You can choose from a home-stay, our volunteer house, or a hostel.
