A couple friends of mine were just volunteering here and had a great experience. I think they were mainly teaching ice hockey and figure skating, but it sounds like there are many other opportunities as well. Looks like a pretty amazing spot. Here is a short description from SEMCOL’s website:
The Students’ Educational and Cultural Movement of Ladakh (SECMOL) was founded in 1988 by a group of young Ladakhis with the aim to reform the educational system of Ladakh. Today our activities are extremely varied and numerous. We organize activities for Ladakhi youth, run a campus for students going to school or college en Leh, develop solar energy projects and much more.
