ABOUT CUSCO, PERU

Known as the “navel of the world” or as the capital of the Inca Empire, the city of Cusco, Peru, brings in its cultural baggage much more than beautiful landscapes and stories from ancient civilizations. 

The torn eyes and well-defined traits of its population of about 430,000 people show a reality that few can see. 

The needy people of the region count on the help of volunteers to maintain a better quality of life and to reinforce education and interest in the culture of other countries. 

Yes! The Cultural Heritage of Humanity – title given by UNESCO in 1983 – is the scene of more intense and thoughtful natural beauty than ever imagined.

PROJECT DETAILS

If you want to change and inspire lives through education, this program is perfect for you. English is very important in developing countries. With your help they will acquire knowledge and confidence to partake in conversational English with foreigners.

Volunteers can teach English at schools, community centers, technical English schools, tourism training schools, and cooperative groups. Students are from 3 to 20 years old and they are divided by age and English levels. You will be free to use your own education-method.
