Rural development projects in the scenic region of Coorg
April 5 - April 18, 2010
Volunteer project: Coorg or Kodagu (originally called Kodaimalenadu) means “dense forest on a steep hill”. It is a rural district located near the city of Mysore (Karnataka State) amongst a scenery of misty hills, lush forest, acres and acres of tea and coffee plantation, orange groves, undulating streets and breathtaking views.
The international volunteer projects in Coorg will focus on environmental protection, re-forestation, tree planting, working with different local NGOs to spread health and hygiene awareness among the tribal villages. The project involves assisting in various underprivileged schools by teaching basic English and Mathematics, health and hygiene, and renovation work such as building playgrounds. The activities will vary and will involve some manual work.
This is one of the most beautiful places in India, completely surrounded by nature!
