China Study Abroad (CSA) — Volunteer Program China Study Abroad (CSA) is proud to present its China volunteer program. Whether your interest is human rights, environmentalism, teaching in rural areas, or poverty alleviation, CSA can place you in the right position. English teachers are a valued commodity in China, particularly in impoverished regions where access to foreign educators is limited. This is one reason many volunteers choose to teach in rural China. CSA can also secure placements for those of you who have both a passion and qualifications for specific projects. We have placed students with various non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and agencies. Whether you have a weekend or a summer, we will find the service project that best fits your needs.
