What we believe
At Ecoteer we believe the way to solve human inequality and environmental destruction is to provide more people with the chance to experience first-hand the real problems in other countries and communities.
To provide this opportunity to as many people as possible EcoTeer offer cheap volunteering opportunities. The low price enables more people the opportunity to volunteer as cost is the main factor preventing many people from volunteering. When on an EcoTeer project the majority of the projects offer either free food or accommodation and sometimes both, leaving you with only your airfares, insurance and luxuries to pay for, please see our Resources Section for recommended airlines, accommodation and travel insurance companies. We hope the low-cost volunteering projects offered by Ecoteer will help to increase volunteer numbers worldwide.
Ecoteer placements are all community-based. The volunteers will live in the local community, meaning they gain an insight into the lives of the local community. This broadens the volunteers' minds and makes them more sympathetic towards other people.

We hope Ecoteer will help to increase volunteer numbers, thus enabling more people to experience environmental and cultural problems in countries other than their own.
We hope volunteering will help people view problems from different angles rather than from one - a very important aspect of foreign volunteering. We hope that through Ecoteer and other volunteer organisations, people from different cultures will become more eager to help others, using their new experiences of environmental and cultural problems.
