Your Career Break Can Help the Fight for Human Rights

Taking a break from everyday life to top up your feelings of well-being is an essential part of living a happy and healthy lifestyle. Those of us who live in the Western world are lucky enough to have plenty of facilities, services and products and income at our disposal to help us relax and enjoy ourselves. For some of us though, self-indulgence isn’t always the way to feeling wholesome. Conscientious adults tend to have a desire to use their time to help others. Volunteering is a good way to fulfil the desire to give back.

It’s your time that you’ll be giving up, so you’ll probably want to use it in a powerful way that will really make a difference to others and leave you with a feeling of grand achievement. And wouldn’t it be nice if you could combine your volunteering with overseas travel?

Volunteering Abroad

 

Taking time out to volunteer abroad isn’t a new concept. Professionals have been taking time out of their UK careers to go and help in struggling and developing countries where their professions are very much needed. It’s not uncommon for UK doctors to take time out to provide medical assistance to those less fortunate and to teach medical skills in the community.

Doctors and medical professionals aren’t the only skilled volunteers that are needed abroad. Graduates, retired seniors and trainee lawyers are also much in demand as volunteer human rights officers in countries such as Cambodia.

Projects being led by professionals always need further input and competent support to fight the cause of those who cannot fight for themselves.  Working with refugees, government bodies and the local police, volunteer lawyers help to fight for equality and freedom for men, women and children in the local developing communities to prevent operations such as child trafficking.

Your Volunteering Career Break

 

Whilst volunteering for human rights related projects you’re likely to come across some serious and distressing issues. But you can feel confident that your work will help to put these problems right. And taking a volunteering career break isn’t all work and no play. For example, if you volunteer in India you’ll be able to meet and mix with some outstanding people, who will be keen to show you the positive things about where they live, which can include fantastic weather, breath taking landscapes and wonderful wildlife that you may otherwise never have the opportunity to see.
