The Web site www.gapyear.com has a vast amount of information on volunteering, including organizations dealing with Belize, plus a huge, invaluable database on travel and living abroad. In addition, the comprehensive range of books and information published by Vacation Work ( www.vacationwork.co.uk ) is well worth looking at - titles include Directory of Summer Jobs Abroad, Taking a Gap Year and Work Your Way Around the World ; most are updated annually and include work and volunteer opportunities in Central America. The Council on International Educational Exchange (contact Council Travel for address) also arranges and administers volunteer and study programmes and has information on Belize.
