Become a volunteer

Volunteer in Morocco — and come home with a story that outlasts the year.

Whether you reach us through your national ICYE committee or apply to CSM directly, we handle placement, orientation, host families, and ongoing coordination — so you can focus on the work and the culture.

How it works

From application to arrival.

  1. 01

    Apply through your sending organization

    Choose three project preferences and write a motivation letter describing your skills, interests, and goals. We work with ICYE partners across Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia.

  2. 02

    CSM places you within a week

    Placements are arranged on a first-come, first-served basis. We email a pre-arrival info pack about three weeks before your departure.

  3. 03

    Arrive in Rabat

    Land at Rabat-Salé Airport or arrive at Rabat-Ville train station. A CSM coordinator meets you and connects you with your host family.

  4. 04

    Three-day orientation, then your project

    A mandatory orientation in Rabat covers language, culture, safety and project context. Then your placement and host family begin.

Participation fees

What it costs to participate.

Visa

We help you stay legal — and welcome.

  • European volunteers can stay up to 90 days without a visa. CSM begins extension paperwork one week before that limit.
  • Non-EU volunteers apply for a tourist visa or residence permit. We supply the supporting documents — invitation letter, project contract, and proof of host.
  • Pre-arrival packs land in your inbox three weeks before departure, with travel instructions and your project info sheet.
