| Brief: |
Dear potential participants,
Ever fancied a life of adventure, discovery and excitement?
Join a hundred strangers. Walk a hundred miles. With no change
of socks. To sleep with bugs and bathe in streams. Would you
give up the comforts of home in pursuit of a crazy dream?
Previous Raleigh International
projects include building gravity feeds to supply fresh water to
villages, building houses, schools, bridges and libraries;
geological surveys, marine conservation work, working with
rhinos & orang utans; as well as trekking across the Crocker
Range, sea kayaking in Chile and trekking across some of the
most arid parts of Namibia.
This year Raleigh International
gives young Malaysians the opportunity to embark on
life-changing expeditions to Malaysia, Costa Rica-Nicaragua,
Namibia & India. These expeditions challenge young people,
between the ages of 17 and 25 through community and conservation
work in some of the world’s most remote destinations. Volunteers
help build homes, community clinics and work with wildlife
experts on some of the world’s most endangered species.
To qualify for an expedition as
a Venturer, you have to be between 17-25 years of age, speak
