What kind of volunteer work is available through ESS?
Nicaragua has few large institutions for social service work. Most volunteer work is done through small local community programs, so it is more personal. ESS school has connections with a variety of local organizations, public, private, and non-governmental non-profit (see school descriptions for details). Once you arrive at your school, either your class, afternoon activities or your school director can introduce you to organizations that might be of interest to you for volunteer work. If you want to stay on working after your ESS program is over, you can extend your homestay with your family (space permitting).
