The Peace Corps is a service opportunity for motivated changemakers to immerse themselves in a community abroad, working side by side with local leaders to tackle pressing challenges. Since 1961, Peace Corps Volunteers have been at the forefront of efforts to promote world peace and friendship by addressing critical needs in education, health, environment, agriculture, and more. Operating in over 60 countries, the Peace Corps empowers volunteers to make a lasting impact while gaining a deeper understanding of diverse cultures and global perspectives.
Opportunities are available in over 60 countries, where Peace Corps Volunteers are using their purpose, passion, and skills to work in partnership with welcoming host communities.
