Volunteer in Sri Lanka with PIA

PIA is calling for Australian planners with more than five years of professional experience to undertake short-term volunteer placements in Colombo.

You will be working alongside Sri Lankan planners, offering many opportunities to share skills and ideas. Our program has a strong emphasis on capacity building and your ability to work harmoniously and productively in a different environment is as important as your planning expertise.

PIA’s support includes flights and an allowance to enable you to live comfortably in Colombo.
