VACANCIES Many developing countries still need external professional assistance. While this is becoming increasingly specialised there are still opportunities at many levels. The main areas are in health and education, and there are also administrative, technical and managerial posts. Some posts are paid an expatriate salary or local salary with other allowances, Other posts are supported by living allowances, air fares, insurance cover etc. We refer to all of these below as Vacancies rather than Volunteer Opportunities.
