    Om programmet

    Dental students can support the provision of dental care, participating in hygiene campaigns and healthcare education. Interns will be placed in "Centros de Salud" or Hospitals which provide both primary and basic emergency care to low-income families.

    The program

    Our dental care programs need volunteer with skills and passion for helping others! As dental health is often one of the most critically underserved healthcare fields in Peru, there are people who are in desperate need of your abilities. 

    In Peru, there are few opportunities for adults and children to have access to dental care and oral hygiene education. However, there are many great projects that are mobilizing skilled volunteers to maintain smiles across Cusco. 

    Volunteer work

    For dental or pre-dental students, working abroad allows for an opportunity to spread your valuable, skills and knowledge to a population that would not usually have access to them. For dental or pre-dental students, working abroad allows you to observe your field in its most basic role and to help people.

    Dental interns will be placed in local dental clinics and work alongside a licensed dentist to gain experience in practical techniques such as prophylaxis, sealants, restorations, and extractions.

    Opportunities may be available to participate in outreach programs in schools and rural communities during the intern's stay. 

    Volunteers will be given a level of responsibility according to their level of training and expertise. Spanish level and ability to take initiative.

    Participating in this project you will need to bring their own materials to develop dental cures and prophylaxis (it is mandatory). 

    - Conservation kits (x2)
    - white medical jacket and Scrubs (to wear daily)
    - Box of surgical gloves (x2)
    - Dental composite resins (white filling B2)
    - Box of surgical masks

    ** Prior to your arrival you may be required to provide copies of your training and credentials.

    Note: The program is suitable only for dental students or professional.

    Henting fra flyplassen på Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport

    We pick volunteers up from Cusco airport and transfer them to their accommodations. Flight information needs to be sent to us prior arrival in Perú.

    Overnatting

    Interns will stay in a homestay where they will live with a local family. Interns can expect to share a room with one or two other. We highly recommend staying with a family; that way you will also learn the Peruvian way of life, meet local people, eat typical food, speak the language (Spanish) and engage in local customs and traditions.

    Interns will be sharing bathroom and common areas with other Interns and members of the family.

    Mat og drikke

    2 meals are included (breakfast and dinner). Interns can expect to experience a variety of flavors and meals during their experience as Peruvian food is diverse. We will be glad to let the family know if you have special eating needs. Please let us know ahead of time so that we can make arrangements for you.

    Om prosjektet

    Peru Volunteer and Travel is a Peruvian based organization, who really want to make a change. That is why we have created the most affordable, and life-changing programs.

    Møt din vert

    Peru Volunteer and Travel was founded in 2011, and is a leading organization in volunteer and internship abroad. We have a dedicated, multilingual team available 24/7 to support and care for our volunteers, we strive to set ourselves apart by providing a top-notch client service and great home base facilities.
    As a Peruvian based organization, we personally know the reality from all of our projects and we know which volunteer projects really need help from volunteers and we place our volunteers in these places so that you feel needed and satisfied.
    During your volunteer placement you will always have support close at hand by our Coordinators.

    Whether you will be working in childcare or a medical placement, teaching English, or any other program with us, you will be making a difference in the poor Peruvian reality. You will interact with poor, disabled, and sad children whose faces light up when they see you come to help them. The adults will make you feel welcome and will be extremely thankful for your help. It will be a once in a lifetime experience that you will never forget.

    Our principal goal is to be one of the organizations that works with the neediest people in Peru in order to try to change their lives for the better. But, of course, we need the help of our volunteers. That is why we make sure to offer quality, safe, and affordable programs for our volunteers and travelers.
    We can maintain low prices and high quality programs because we are the creators of our volunteer programs in Peru. We are the in-country coordinators for many other organizations, our main office is in Peru, and our programs are considered the best ones there are!

    I thought volunteering is a duty: if we can do something good, if we can help somewhere then we must do it. However, after spending a month living as a Cusqueña, I realized that it is a privilege. It is a privilege to be part of the daily life in a daycare, to watch the children learn new words, ...
