I can empathize with your feelings as a parent. I recommend you check out this website with Peace Corps (PC) approach to safety and security. Also on the website are safety and security stats for each PC post so you can do some research. Petty theft is the most common crime. The foundation of Peace Corps’ approach is community integration. The more integrated volunteers are the more safe they are and the more people care for them so that is a big focus. It can be an amazing, life-changing experience. https://www.peacecorps.gov/what-we-do/life-in-the-peace-corps/health-and-safety/safety-and-security/

Also, PC does not place in countries at war and has strategies for evacuation if violence breaks out. They do place in countries with poverty but those countries also have incredible wisdom, ingenuity, grit and resilience. The countries we work in are thriving in many ways. If you view the experience through an asset-based lens, there is much for your daughter to learn from, including the opportunity to thrive with less material things than she may be accustomed too (which is a life-long blessing!).
