Want to discover and get involved in our bodies?

Are you an experienced person and would like to put your skills at the service of our bodies, or on the contrary rather a young novice interested in learning and getting more involved within our association? JAVVA is recruiting new members for its General Assembly and Board of Directors. A great volunteer opportunity not to be missed!

Volunteering for a few hours, days, months, in Belgium or abroad, alone or in a group, in various fields? JAVVA is a Belgian non-profit organization which offers various international volunteering projects as an opportunity for discovery and learning, and as a tool for building peace through intercultural encounter.

JAVVA is based in Anderlecht and recognized as a Youth Organization by the Wallonia-Brussels Federation. We welcome young people from all over the world on local development projects and allow many Belgian residents to participate in volunteering projects abroad, according to each situation and desire.

Our association is part of an approach by and for volunteers, with a priority for those under 35, and an inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities or in need of international protection. Do not hesitate to forward it to your possibly interested contacts and redirect them to us to discuss it. We promise lots of meetings, experiences and enrichments!
