We are a team of
passionate conservationists working tirelessly to save our endangered and
threatened wild and marine life from extinction. Volunteers will take part in
short and longterm projects which are intended to create sustainability for
generations to come. Tasks may vary from physical work to interesting and
interactive lecture-based content. Our volunteer program will run from 1 to 4
weeks.
By
combining Wildlife and Marine Conservation in one program, we aim to underline
the importance of uncovering the whole big picture of our Eco-System for a
better understanding of Nature and why it works the way it does. Education is
our first priority in order to make a difference.
In order to guarantee an educational and
impactful experience for each volunteer, we will work in small groups with a
maximum number of 8 participants.
Much of our
Conservation work will take place at the nearby Sibuya Game Reserve itself as
well as at the nearby rivers and beaches. The Reserve is located in
Kenton-on-Sea, along the Sunshine Coast of the Eastern Cape in South Africa,
about 120 km from Port Elizabeth. This renowned Reserve is home to a wide range
of different species of Flora and Fauna, with the stunning Kariega River
Estuary meandering through it.
PLEASE NOTE: We say NO
to any kind of interaction with wild animals and we strongly dissociate
ourselves from so-called sanctuaries, parks or rehabilitation centers that
promote Cub petting, Lion walking or interacting with Elephants. These
organizations mislead visitors to believe that they're promoting conservation
while the truth is that they keep wild animals in captivity and use them for
commercial exploitation.
This is the perfect
eco volunteer program for you, if you are looking for a meaningful travel
opportunity abroad that put – together with like-minded people from all over
the world - your passion for nature, environment and wildlife to good use,
trying to make a difference.
