Youth Challenge Australia is a non-profit, non-religious organisation that actively engages Australian volunteers in grass roots development work.

In Central Australia, Vanuatu, India, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Guyana and Mexico, volunteers work in collaboration with local communities and partner organisations to assist the growth of sustainable and positive development.

Volunteer on a 5-12 week project that focuses on health, education, construction, conservation or social development. The Youth Challenge experience has a reputation for developing engaged and globally aware citizens, many of whom go on to be leaders in many parts of society.
