Each country will vary in terms of a specific dress code. Many of our countries more conservative than what you may be used to. It is important that volunteers respect the local norms, and that might mean having to cover up at times. Each project can vary on what volunteers are advised to wear. Some projects may be more relaxed on what you can wear whilst on the project, but if exploring the local area, particularly if visiting non-touristy places, it may be advised to cover up. In many places women are advised to cover their shoulders, knees, and stomach, and sometimes their heads when entering temples. For men, covering shoulders and shorts no higher than the knee is recommended. After booking, you will receive a detailed pre-departure pack on the best dress code for your country and project.
