About Program
Jamaica’s people are the friendliest in the world, and its music, food, and paradise landscapes are famous globally. But Jamaica has suffered high debt and low growth over the past 30 years and poverty is still significant.
On a Kaya Responsible Travel intern or volunteer program in Jamaica, you can work in education, health, or special needs-focused programs while recharging on the weekends in paradise!
