Volunteering isn't easy. And ICS definitely isn't a holiday.
On your placement you'll be pushed out of your comfort zone. You'll do things you never thought possible. But when your placement's over, you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner.
Check out Daniel's brilliant photos from his placement in Hoima, western Uganda. You might even decide you're up for a challenge too.
1. Youth lifting up youth
Students of a welding centre demonstrate their skills to local young people during a careers fair organised by VSO ICS volunteers.
2. Saving the planet
Sometimes it takes courage to stand up for nature. ICS volunteers across the world make sure that yesterday's rubbish won't have an impact on tomorrow.
3. Challenging conversations
The things that need to be said aren't always the easiest to say. We love what the UN's Sustainable Development Goals stand for. But if we're going to achieve their target of ending poverty by 2030, we all need to get behind them.
4. Making sure all voices are heard
Some voices dominate the conversation. You'll be using your skills to change that. VSO volunteer Georgia's here facilitating a youth champion training session as her team introduce the community to ICS.
5. Welcome to your new life
It takes courage to throw yourself in. Through ICS you'll inspire and engage young people. VSO volunteers Happy Okech and Mariam Adamz are pictured here during an ICS launch event as they help to share their knowledge.
6. Saying goodbye is hard
All good things have to come to an end. Who knew you'd make friendships that would last a lifetime. Think you don't do emotional goodbyes? Think again.
