What is working abroad?

What are the pages involved for work abroad per sector and working field?

  • The possibilities for finding work abroad vary greatly depending on the sector.
  • Some sectors frequently employ international staff, temporary workers, or international volunteers.
  • In other sectors, the nature of the work makes it more difficult to find a job abroad.
  • If you speak the local language, are looking for work in a field in which you already have experience, or are willing to start as an (unpaid) trainee, this can open up additional opportunities for you.

See the following WorldSupporter pages for jobs, vacancies and employers per sector:

The JoHo 'WorldSupporter' platform

  • The JoHo WorldSupporter project is an online community in which individuals and organizations inspire and help each other on a local and global level
  • You can share and find everything to help someone else, travel responsibly, study well, develop yourself and work for an organization that creates a better world
  • You can gain knowledge, share experiences, answer questions, post comments and publish your own WorldSupporter CV
  • You can share your summaries, photos, blogs, vacancies, events, sustainable recipes and tips for others

How do you use JoHo WorldSupporter.org?

  • You can create a WorldSupporter account in a few minutes, and it is integrated into your Personal WorldSupporter profile.
  • Your WorldSupporter profile is comparable to your own platform for all content that you create or collect on WorldSupporter.
  • Your WorldSupporter profile also shows all content recently created by the organizations, groups and people you personally follow.
  • Your WorldSupporter profile indicates what you contribute to the world around you. It shows what you do for others during your studies, at work, on vacation, or in your spare time. The goal is to inspire others to contribute more to the development of the world, or specifically to your favorite projects and charities. On the other hand, it is also a tool that allows you to create a clear picture for yourself or those close to you of your activities, the role you play, or the goals you want to achieve in life.
  • Since WorldSupporter is an independent platform with its own mission and objectives, you will be asked to create your own WorldSupporter mini-CV so that your fellow supporters can get an idea of who you are, and you can get a good idea of the people and organizations you would like to follow.

Travel insurance and International insurance: introduction

Travel Insurance

  • A long trip is the adventure of a lifetime and will broaden your world view. Experience what it is like to live in a different culture and let it change you, for the better! Meet new and interesting people, make life long friends and be awed by totally different cultures and traditions.
  • Let those pictures of breathtaking views and chilled out crowds be an inspiration for your trip. JoHo is here to encourage you to make it happen and to help you prepare for the stressful sides of traveling. A change of diet (and not to mention hygiene) may upset your stomach. Something unexpected might happen back home that may cut your travels short. JoHo can help you find the tools to deal with these situations and be prepared for both the up- and the downsides of traveling!
  • A crucial part for a carefree journey is a good travel insurance. On this page you can read more about JoHo's travel insurances for backpackers and (longterm) travelers and what to care for.    

Why should you take out specialized travel insurance for a long trip abroad?

  • Regular travel or health insurances often only cover trips for a maximum number of days (for example 60, 90 or 180 days). This limits your flexibility!
  • Your health insurance from back home may not offer any coverage abroad or only in specific hospitals.
  • During a long trip you might undertake special activities like paid work or volunteering. Regular travel insurances usually don’t cover these kind of activities. The same goes for adventurous sports like skydiving, scuba diving and bungee jumping.
