Europe

Europe might be famous for its castles, cafés and coastline views — but there’s so much more to discover when you travel with purpose. The Green Lion’s programs in Europe invite you to step off the tourist trail and connect with communities in a meaningful, hands-on way.

In Portugal, join us in Lisbon, a city buzzing with creativity, history and laid-back charm. You can support community initiatives like Childcare or lend a hand in Food Shop programs that make a direct difference for locals. Our placements are designed to help you build real connections, learn new skills and see Portugal through the eyes of its people.

Outside your project time, wander colourful alleyways, catch live music in hidden cafes or watch the sunset from riverside viewpoints. Travelling in Europe with The Green Lion means more than seeing the sights — it’s about connection, impact and discovering the heart of each place you visit.
