Information about WF


Worldwide Friends (WF) was founded in 2001 as a non-profit, non governmental organization promoting peace, friendship and international understanding.

We host short-term voluntary workcamps, long-term voluntary projects (3-7 months), seminars (suitable both for young people and adults), Youth Exchanges, educational programmes and campaigns in Iceland. We also send Icelandic volunteers intending to have similar experiences abroad.

Veraldarvinir/WF works with three main aims:

To promote inter-cultural learning, exchange and awareness
to care for Icelandic nature and raise awareness of environmental issues
to promote voluntary work and a culture of volunteering

WF works with many of the local communities in Iceland and on an international level we are associated member of the Alliance of European Voluntary Service Organization (www.alliance-network.org) and we cooperate with similar organizations all around the globe.
