Om programmet

It is one of the world's most diverse locations when it comes to ecosystems. Over half of southern Africa's species are found in South Africa, including many endangered creatures and plants. The country encompasses a wide range of climates and terrain, supporting a variety of ecosystems. The country 's protected areas comprise more than 40% of its territory, including France and Spain in area. Many rare species benefit from these vital habitats. Nature reserves and other protected areas operated by government organizations and non-profit organizations also protect the country' natural resources. It is still vulnerable to climate change and other aspects of human activity.

Environmental conservation volunteers can contribute in many ways to these exciting and sustainable environmental projects. One of the focuses of these projects is on the running of environmental educational camps for children and the youth of South Africa. Outreach and awareness programs for children from impoverished communities have been a major focus of these projects.


Tasks and activities Include:

  • Assisting and running environmental education camps for children and youth

  • General upkeep of facilities, maintenance and upgrading the center.

  • Obstacle course repairs and maintenance

  • Assisting with the Eco-Schools program

  • Interacting with the children (games etc)

  • Painting of walls and murals

  • General Administration tasks

Om prosjektet

Integrated Learning Experiences was founded in 2005 by former Peace Corps staff that wanted to provide flexible volunteer programs with a positive impact.

Møt din vert

Integrated Learning Experiences’ (INLEX) mission is to strengthen human resources in Central America and South America through volunteer programs, educational travel and internship opportunities.

In addition to this, INLEX provides opportunities for students and professionals to further gain experience in their field of choice by matching participants with the best opening available.

We work towards:

  • Sustainability in the projects and communities that we work in.
  • Programs that promote cultural exchange.
  • Safe and affordable programs.
  • Strengthening and empowering communities.
  • Authentic experiences for our participants.
  • Facilitating education.

INLEX was set founded by former Peace Corps staff in Guatemala in 2005 who wanted to provide flexible programs for volunteers in Central America. This flexibility allows our participants the option to commit for as long as they want in the area they are best suited to support; creating a positive impact and a rewarding experience. We do this because we believe in the principle that every volunteer can make a difference.

Many years and happy people later, we continue working with key partner projects to develop communities in the Latin American region.

2022 at Wildlife & Sea Turtle Conservation

The work in preservation and protection programs of marine wildlife in Monterrico (Guatemala's Pacific's coast) was amazing: I did exactly the same work as my Guatemalan colleagues. The work itself was completely adapted, carried out with seriousness but always in a very good mood! :) I had chosen ...
