It's all on the Internet - however finding it is difficult - it's not all in one place or on one page! If you have endless time you can do-it-yourself or I can suggest somethings to save you time.
I have been researching volunteering and job opportunities in international development and the developing world for over 14 years; I am still learning about new resources every week.
If
you know nothing about volunteering or working overseas in the
developing world, what types of agencies exist and what they do, what is
an aid worker... Then you will find World Service Enquiry's
Volunteer for Development very helpful. I have been responsible
for writing and editing this booklet for over 14 years and it aims to
answer the most common questions from people wishing to volunteer or
work in international development and volunteer in the developing world.
Working
in Development is full of ideas on how you can improve your
chances to get your first or next development job. Written specifically
for career changers and new graduates by one of wse's experienced One to
One consultants. It is based on the most common questions encountered
from career changers and job seekers over the last few years.
You can order at your local book shop or buy direct from wse and save money.

The most complete listing of UK Development
related courses can be found at Development Studies Association and
international centres and distance learning on reliefweb. A word of
warning: another degree is not going to make you a development worker.
International Development and Relief Jobs
These are probably the hardest to find on the
internet. As a specialist you should know the key players within your
area of expertise. I can help you discover who they are and where the
jobs might be.
