As a CCS volunteer in Brazil, South America’s largest and most populated country, you’ll work side-by-side with local people in a vibrant, friendly, and physically stunning country. The culture of Brazil reflects a long history of immigration from European, Asian, Arab, and African countries mixing with indigenous groups. Brazil is both a tropical paradise with beautiful beaches, the Amazon rainforest, and rich biodiversity, and also one of the most urban and industrialized countries in Latin America, with 80% of its population living in cities and towns. Since 2002, over 1,500 CCS volunteers have worked on community-led initiatives in Brazil.

Salvador

Salvador, Brazil’s oldest city and original capital, is lined with beaches and considered the center of Afro-Brazilian culture, arts, and cuisine. Salvador’s ornate architecture, cobblestone streets, vibrant nightlife, and festive people add to its charm, and you’ll find late-night concerts, frequent festivals, and spontaneous street dancing year-round. Despite a wide economic divide among its over 3 million residents, Salvador has a reputation for enthusiasm and optimism widely known throughout Brazil and the world.
