WORK EXPERIENCE
Jakera offer students an opportunity to do meaningful volunteer work within the communities in which we operate. Not only does this deepen our understanding and respect for the peoples around us but it gives participants a rewarding first hand experience of life here. We have long standing relationships with established non profit organisations such as the Don Bosco 'Street Kids' projects in Merida and Puerto La Cruz. This enables us to offer structured placements that deliver real benefits.
To find out more about these programs see our dedicated student website:

On a less formal basis we also collaborate with local people on one-off projects such as creating a beach volley ball pitch or painting a school fence. You can find out more about these and other projects by reading our Jakera News bulletin and in the students own words…
