Where in Argentina will I work?

Your project will be carried out in the city of Córdoba, the second-largest city in Argentina. This young and dynamic city is one of the friendliest in the country. During your stay, you will work in our human rights office, sharing an office with local staff and other colleagues. The office is fully funded and run by Mondify, so we rely on our interns to keep things running. You will also have to work outside the office, in community centres and partner organizations.

Food and accommodation

You will stay with a host family in Córdoba. They will welcome you into their home and will be happy to share their customs and learn about your culture. We believe that this is the best way to immerse yourself in the Argentine lifestyle and have a truly unique experience. Your room will be simple, but comfortable, clean and safe. The cost of the program includes three meals a day.

Leisure

Argentina is a vibrant South American country full of colours and cultural heritage. As well as contributing to worthwhile projects, travelling to Argentina with us means you’ll be able to explore this fascinating country. Spend the afternoon enjoying a coffee in Plaza San Martín, with its street artists and its iconic statue of General José de San Martín. You can take a weekend trip to the mountains. The surrounding nature is impressive and a horseback ride through the nature trails is also worthwhile. There are cultural experiences, such as the Evita Superior Museum of Fine Arts or the Teatro del Libertador General San Martín. You can also learn about the country’s history at local museums and visit the birthplace of Che Guevara. There are probably other volunteers in Argentina, so you can explore on your own or with a group of volunteers from different projects.

What recent volunteers said about their Mondify experience

Spanish language lessons

Fluency in Spanish is not a prerequisite for participating in Mondify’s programs in Córdoba, Argentina. However, certain projects may have limitations for volunteers with limited language proficiency. Therefore, Mondify strongly recommends that volunteers take advantage of the affordable Spanish courses offered exclusively to program participants. Previous volunteers have found that these classes significantly enhance day-to-day volunteer work and facilitate communication with local communities. Taught by professional Spanish instructors and tailored to each individual’s specific needs, the classes vary in duration and intensity. For instance, the Dynamic Spanish Immersion Course includes 25 group classes per week, totaling 3 hours and 45 minutes daily, while the Rapid Language Mastery Program offers 37 group classes per week, with 5 hours and 30 minutes of daily instruction. These lessons are arranged with your Mondify Program Manager prior to departure.
