Remote volunteering
Support organisations overseas to achieve their development goals anywhere, anytime, through remote volunteering.
Support change overseas with a remote volunteer assignment
Through the Australian Volunteers Program’s new remote volunteering initiative, you can apply your technical skills and unique experiences to make a significant contribution to countries and communities overseas, all while working and living in Australia.
Remote volunteering is flexible. Volunteer at a time and location that suits your needs while still making an impact overseas. Learn more about how it works.
Support is available every step of the way, with training and resources, and advice from our in-country teams who are here to help you navigate your volunteer journey. A small allowance is provided to help with costs of working remotely. You will also join a network of thousands of current and past Australian volunteers.
