Voluntary Service Overseas
VSO (Voluntary Service Overseas) is an international
development organization that works with volunteers. VSO does
not send food or money to developing countries. Instead, they
take a 'people to people' approach. VSO places volunteers from
a wide range of professions in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, the
Pacific and Eastern Europe. VSO volunteers bring with them
expertise in such areas as education, healthcare, HIV &
AIDS, and business management.
With Randstad Education, we focus on sustainable development
rather than short-term relief. By working in partnership with
local people, VSO volunteers share skills and knowledge with a
community that will benefit them long after their placement has
finished. Volunteers, in turn, have the opportunity to learn
from their peers in developing countries. The knowledge they
gain can be shared and built upon back home.
