Volunteer Health Workers
We at Un Mundo very strongly believe in the need to support the Honduran health workers who struggle to band-aid their country's fundamentally broken health care system. Although we do assist in visits from medical brigades, we prefer to encourage long-term volunteer efforts to improve the health care system in Honduras. And while health care workers treat patients one-on-one, we encourage volunteers to take a public health approach to their work, focusing on prevention and promoting an awareness among their patients that their health issues are both a cause and effect of underdevelopment.
If you are a health care professional interested in coming to Honduras, Un Mundo can help you find a work-live placement in a rural community very much in need of your services. You will work directly with a physician in Honduras and one of our on-site facilitators to work out the logistics of your visit.

Un Mundo depends primarily on support from a small group of individual donors to continue our work in marginalized communities. You can donate quickly and easily online through a secure server by
