ETIV do Brasil: Education through International Volunteering in Brazil

ETIV do Brasil is located in the beautiful fishing and surfing town of Itacare, Bahia. We are looking for volunteers to support our projects in environmental conservation, youth development, teaching English, sports, and values training. In addition, we have several positions available working in the ETIV office while learning about NGO administration. These positions include volunteer coordination, marketing & communications, website development, fundraising, event planning, basic office support and painting and construction.

The positions are perfect for someone seeking meaningful work experience in a stunning location with a thriving Afro-Brazilian culture. Itacare is a unique place where the Rainforest meets the Atlantic Ocean and beautiful beaches, jungles, coconut trees, waterfalls and wildlife abound. ETIV can also link you to Eco-adventure tours in and around Itacare as well as cultural education classes including Portuguese and Capoeira classes.
