Practical Training, Voluntary Work:
more and more students, in particular of medicine, approach „Pro Bhutan“ asking assistance to be accepted for a period of practical training in the Punakha Hospital or in other institutions in Bhutan.
The same holds for good minded persons etc. offering their voluntary work either in the Punakha hospital or in other, particularly in social fields.
It is with great regret that “Pro Bhutan” is not in a position to help. Any person interested should approach the Royal Government directly, may be first searching in the government portal : » www.bhutan.gov.bt or the web site of the Ministry of Health: » www.health.gov.bt.
In any case, it may be mentioned that the chances for permission for any short term training or voluntary work in Bhutan are very reduced.
