    This program is ideal for:

    Medical and nursing students at any level including pre-medical and pre-nursing, as well as qualified professionals. Campaigns can be tailored to particular specialties and the level of experience of your group.

    Project details

    Want to volunteer on a Medical Campaign with a group of friends or colleagues in Peru - Cusco? International Volunteer HQ’s Medical Campaign project is a great opportunity for groups of eight or more people to get together and provide roving healthcare services. This week-long campaign involves visiting remote or disadvantaged areas around Cusco to improve access to medical care and treatment for the people who live there.

    What to expect and how you'll make an impact

    In Cusco, people in low-income communities struggle to access regular medical care and other basic necessities of life.

    Volunteer campaigns enable both children and adults to receive basic medical and health services in their own neighborhoods. Having this kind of care available can encourage local people to continue to seek medical treatment when they need it.

    As a Medical Campaign volunteer you will visit up to five different communities throughout the week. While each campaign is different, past volunteers have: helped local professionals to provide health check ups; educated communities about nutrition and personal hygiene; and taught people about dental care and distributed toothbrushes and toothpaste in areas without clean drinking water.

    What recent volunteers said about their IVHQ experience

    This trip, especially the Amazon conservation program, was one of, if not the best experiences of my life. I highly recommend it.

    I was scared at first as I was a solo 17-year-old female traveler but I felt very safe with IVHQ's support. I learned so much about myself, plants and animals, and other cultures. I was also scared about not having service in the Jungle for two weeks, but It was such a nice experience. I got so close to some of the coolest people I've ever met, and made such amazing memories. I could go on forever about this program, you should definitely do it if you are thinking about it.

    I really appreciated all the specific information about the program and the all the help from IVHQ and the local team before and during my stay in Peru.

    A person has to be able to leave the comforts of their home behind and adjust to the different environment. I found it to be a great experience, it sure helps if you speak the language, which I do. I am looking forward to another volunteer opportunity.

    IVHQ was very organized and it helped me make my process so easy! I planned this trip only two weeks before my start date and they were able to accommodate us fast! I was checked up on through the program by IVHQ and the local team! I loved it and will do it again!

    Volunteer Abroad in Peru, Cusco with IVHQ

    Location

    Cusco is one of the oldest cities in South America and situated in the stunning Peruvian Andes. The city is close to famous Inca trails, ruins and temples, such as Machu Picchu. It’s a hive of culture, adventure and culinary delights - all of which makes it a prime destination for visitors to Peru.

    The IVHQ Peru - Cusco volunteer program has volunteer placements located in Cusco and surrounding valleys. Volunteers are important to Cusco because despite the thriving tourism industry and government investment in the region, many local people make little money and struggle to access food, water, shelter, healthcare and education. Volunteers can make a difference by supporting local initiatives that aim to help people improve their quality of life by making sure they have the basic necessities and opportunities to help them improve their futures.

    Arrival and orientation

    Volunteers need to arrive in Cusco on the Sunday before their start date.

    After you have registered for the program, please book your flights to arrive at the Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport (CUZ) in Cusco. Your airport pick-up is included in your Program Fee. We recommend that volunteers under the age of 18 travel internationally with a notarized letter from their parents to support their documentation.

    When you arrive, you will be greeted at the airport by a member of the local team and transported to the local team’s main office and then to your homestay. Your accommodation is covered by your Program Fee and includes the night before your program orientation.

    If you are travelling in Peru prior to your volunteer program, we can arrange for you to be picked up in Cusco on the day before your program orientation.

    The local team will aim to complete your general program orientation shortly after you arrive, no matter what day you arrive, in order to acclimatize you to your surroundings in Cusco as quickly as possible. Orientation lasts around 2 hours and covers everything you need to know for your volunteer program – introduction to Peru, Peruvian customs, language lesson details, rules and expectations, safety, travel opportunities in Cusco, introduction to your project and placement. This is also followed by a walking tour. Orientation sessions are scheduled throughout the day, with the last being around 4:00 PM. If you arrive after this time, don’t worry; the local team will ensure this is completed first thing the following morning.

    Volunteer schedule example

    First Day

    On your first day of volunteering, typically Tuesday, you will be escorted to your placement by a local coordinator and introduced to the placement staff you will be working with.

    Weekdays

    Volunteers will have a morning, afternoon or evening shift which will last about 3 to 5 hours. Volunteer roles and hours are dependent on your project and placement. A typical morning schedule might be as follows:

    8:00 AM Breakfast with your host family.
    9:00 AM Leave the homestay and travel to your placement, where you will be given a structure sheet and a plan for your work.
    12:00 PM Lunch at a local restaurant.
    1:00 - 6:00 PM Work at the placement usually ends. You are free to travel back to your accommodation, go sightseeing or take Spanish lessons.
    7:00 PM Dinner with your host family.

    Weekends

    On weekends volunteers have spare time to relax or take the opportunity to explore other parts of Cusco and Peru. Sunday is a religious day of rest and most stores and restaurants are closed on Sundays, as most Peruvians devote the day to spending time with their families. If you like, you can accompany your host family to their local church, as a Latin American church service is a unique and special experience for many volunteers.

    Cusco is a lively metropolitan city with a fascinating history and lots to see and do. There are places where you can learn about the Mayan and Incan culture and traditions, see ancient ruins, a beautiful central square bordered by restaurants and cafes, cooking classes, a chocolate museum offering all kinds of tasty delights or dance the night away in some of Peru’s best nightclubs. It is also an outdoor-lovers paradise with plenty of horseback riding, ziplining and hiking opportunities, including Rainbow Mountain.

    Long weekends can be taken to travel further afield to visit other parts of Peru, such as Lima.

    Accommodation and WiFi

    Volunteers on Cusco based projects will be accommodated in either a dorm-style volunteer house or a homestay with a local host family, depending on their age. Volunteers who are between the ages of 18 and 27 are accommodated in a larger, dorm-style volunteer house. Whereas, those over the age of 27 are accommodated in a local home-stay, hosted by a local family. If you are travelling as a family, or a solo volunteer under the age of 18, the local team will place you in a separate home-stay.

    You will find living conditions are comfortable in both types of accommodation, and all host families have been approved by our local staff. Bedrooms have single and bunk beds with bedding provided. In the volunteer house you can expect to share a room with up to 8 other volunteers, whereas in a homestay you may share a room with up to four other volunteers. All bedrooms are separated by gender. The volunteer house can accommodate up to 30 volunteers, whereas the homestays can host up to 6 volunteers at one time.

    If you prefer a private room, these are available in our homestays and you will need to arrange this through your Program Manager once you’ve secured your spot on the program. Private room upgrades cost £51 per week.

    All accommodations have electricity, filtered water for drinking, running water and western bathrooms. Low pressure showers are common and the water is not always heated. Please note, homes in Peru are not typically heated but your hosts can provide you with additional blankets upon request. We also advise wearing layered clothing as the temperature tends to drop at night, due to the altitude.

    WiFi is available in the majority of homestays and you will have access to computers and WiFi at the local team’s office in Cusco.

    Please note, volunteers under the age of 18 who are travelling solo will be accommodated separately from those over the age of 18, in a homestay. If there are other volunteers under the age of 18 participating at the same time, the local team will do their best to ensure they are accommodated together.

    Meals

    In Cusco, volunteers are provided breakfast and dinner at their accommodation.

    A typical Peruvian breakfast consists of bread, spreads and fruit or bread and an egg accompanied by tea or coffee. Dinner commonly consists of potatoes and rice, with some vegetables or protein (commonly chicken). You should not expect to have meat everyday.

    We recommend budgeting between US$3 (approximately £2) and US$10 (approximately £8) per day to purchase lunch. Local staff will give recommendations on economical places to eat in Cusco as part of orientation.

    Please let us know of any dietary requirements you have so we can make special arrangements for you.

    Affordable Spanish language lessons

    Fluency in Spanish is not a prerequisite for the IVHQ Peru - Cusco program, however on certain projects volunteer work will be restricted with limited language ability. We recommend that volunteers take advantage of the very affordable language lessons offered exclusively to IVHQ volunteers by our local team in Cusco. Past volunteers feel that taking these lessons help immensely with day-to-day volunteer work and communicating with local people. The language lessons are tailored to each volunteer’s current level of Spanish and classes run from Monday through to Friday. The cost is very affordable and offered exclusively to IVHQ volunteers.

    • Group Class: 2 hours a day - starting at £74 per week
    • Private Class: 1 hour a day - starting at £79 per week
    • Private Class: 2 hours a day - starting at £158 per week

    How to book IVHQ’s language lessons: Once you’ve paid your registration fee, you will be able to select language lessons as an “Add-on” via your MyIVHQ profile.

    Spanish language lessons are not available on the Andean Immersion, Eco-Agriculture or Amazon Jungle Conservation projects due to their remote nature. However volunteers will have plenty of opportunity to practice with locals.

    Weather and climate: Peru, unlike other equatorial countries, does not have an exclusively tropical climate; the influence of the Andes and the Humboldt Current causes great climatic diversity within the country. In the mountains, rain is frequent during summer and temperatures and humidity diminish with altitude up to the frozen peaks of the Andes. The jungle has heavy rainfal​l​ and high temperatures, with the exception of its southernmost part, which has cold winters and seasonal rainfall.
