August 2023 | Clinical Outreach Team | Honduras
OneWorld Health is proud to host a clinical outreach team in Siguatepeque, Honduras. Join us as we provide responsible healthcare to communities in need. Our volunteer experiences provide a unique cultural, educational and impactful experience for our travelers. Through implementing the same short-term experience across all projects sites, we are able to see long-term, sustainable effects that serve the ultimate good.
As a volunteer, you are a representative of OneWorld Health in the regions we serve. The legacy you leave will be what we continue to build upon for years after your departure. With this responsibility, OneWorld Health holds high expectations for our representatives in the field.
