Human Rights Advocacy Experience in Guatemala

This experience offers a unique opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the lives of vulnerable and marginalized communities in Guatemala.


The country's history has been marked by human rights violations and social exclusion, particularly affecting the Maya indigenous population. Today, these communities still face challenges in accessing justice and basic services, making the work of local non-governmental organizations and charities crucial in advocating for change and promoting policies that protect their rights.


As a volunteer, you will have the chance to participate in various projects aimed at fostering equality and justice within the country. These may include documenting human rights abuses, educating the international community, or providing direct support to victims of abuse. By contributing your time and skills, you will be making a tangible difference in the lives of those who need it most.


In addition to human rights work, the project also offers opportunities to support women's rights initiatives. Gender-based violence remains a pervasive issue in Guatemala, exacerbated by a patriarchal society and a culture that often blames victims. With limited state intervention, it is essential to support local projects focused on protecting abuse victims and promoting violence prevention through education.


The experience includes a comprehensive induction to help you become familiar with your new surroundings, an overview of the host organization's operations, and flexibility to work full- or part-time depending on your availability. You will also have the option to stay in a private room with a local host family or at a hotel, and enjoy activities such as Spanish lessons and cultural immersion.
