LIFE ABROAD 
In Gaborone (or Gabs city as it is known colloquially), prepare to be entertained by compelling art shows, fascinating cuisine, and thrilling nightlife. Also, learn about the nations’ historic roots by visiting the Three Chiefs Monument and viewing traditional Botswana crafts and paintings at the National Museum and Art Gallery.   

VOLUNTEER
There are a variety of opportunities available to engage in volunteer experiences on this program. Past examples include working with NGOs focused on safety and legal rights for women and environmental organizations that focus on conservation and forestry projects. There are also opportunities in the creative arts, health (such as HIV/AIDS support), human rights, economic development (such as micro-finance projects) and children/youth NGOs.   

What We Love About Botswana 
We love that Botswana offers incomparable access to nature, with nearly 38% of its territory is protected as national parks, sanctuaries, and reserves and the largest elephant population in the world. Whether you are a history buff, nature lover, or thrive in the energy of a new city, Gaborone offers something for everyone.
