About Program
Omprakash facilitates mutually-beneficial & educational relationships between social grassroots organizations and individuals who wish to volunteer or intern in Asia. Rather than 'placing' you with an organization, Omprakash supports you in applying directly for opportunities with our network of 250+ vetted Partner organizations working in 50+ countries in fields like public health, education, environmental justice, economic development, and human rights advocacy.
Our award-winning online training and mentorship program, Widening Circles EdGE (Education through Global Engagement), is designed to support your learning, critical reflection, and overall impact before, during, and after your international experience. While you aren't required to participate in the Widening Circles EdGE program to find a position through our Partner network, we highly recommend joining EdGE to gain individualized mentorship, support, and throughout your volunteering or Gap Year journey.
