Sobre o programa

This program takes place in Ebro Delta Natural Park.

The Ebro Delta Natural Park is the largest protected wetland in Catalonia. In total, 7,736 hectares where rice fields charge a different colour depending on the time of year we are, and become a pole of attraction of a rich flora and fauna.

More than 800 different species of flora, where the hurdles, the reeds and the river honeysuckles stand out. Much of this vegetation has had to adapt to extreme conditions and colonize dunes, saline soils or lagoon areas. The wildlife of the Delta, basically birds, attracts birdwatchers around the world. In fact, between 50,000 and 100,000 specimens of exactly 343 species of birds are quantified.

The tasks volunteers will participate in won't be the same every day and will vary in different levels of demand. The main tasks to develop during the volunteer shifts are the following:

  • Conservation campaigns: Study of the distributions of autochthon and exotic/invasive species in the Delta and the extraction of invasive species such as the pond turtle from Florida, prospecting of naiads in the drainage channels in the rice fields of the Delta; and extraction of allochthonous plants according to the planning of the Delta de l'Ebre Natural Park and our own conservation projects. They also develop ecology scientific studies through monitoring of bird populations as well as other kind of fauna.
  • Environmental education, ornithological tourism and public use: Guided tours in the reserve for schools, consumer groups and universities, etc., provide ornithological information to visitors and support at the bird hide; organization of workshops, games and logistics to develop environmental education actions and celebration of world days (Bird World Day, Nature 2000 Day, etc...) on the farm with groups of visitors.
  • Maintenance tasks on houses, visitor center and hide: Painting, ordering, restructuring the farm houses and warehouses; clean, order and maintain the public places of the Reserve.
  • Organic garden: work in our vegetable garden, for internal use and also for sell, for environmental education and to learn how to grow our own food.
  • Scientific monitoring tasks (birds and bat counts, flora and fauna monitoring):

Participation in the bird census of the Reserve and other protected areas and in other monitoring programs. Take care of the optical material (binoculars and telescopes); count and locate the nests of the most important species; report after the breeding season; monitor the occupation of nest boxes for bats and birds.

NOTE: During the work days you will be accompanied by the staff technical office in the Ebro Delta. But the staff will not be with you 24 hours a day during all the volunteering but mostly during the working hours.

 

The tasks to be developed are often physical and / or are developed in aquatic ecosystems (lagoons, rice fields, etc.) so you have to be willing to work outdoors and in, sometimes, harsh conditions (walking through the mud, handling animals and plants, use tools, get dirty, etc.). 


Dia típico

The tasks depend on the season, weather and animals routines.

Your tasks will be assigned when you arrive to the Park and there is a daily briefing on-site.

2024 at Youth Supporter

I recommend this experience to absolutely anyone, it was the best of my life. The first week my placement was in a Skatepark in Cascais, so I had to catch a train and then a bus. Although it was good and the commute was fine, I didn't feel comfortable at the beggining so I asked to switch to a ...

2024 at Environmental Scuba Diving

The people working there were really supportive and genuinely wish for you to have a good experience. My first day was an introduction to the area, possibility to get help with the tickets for the public transports and a guided tour of Lisbon. They also have communication chats for you to contact ...

2024 at Animal Care and Protection

Honestly, I was surprised, when on the website it shows photos of so many dogs, animals, it turned out I was working at a cat sanctuary. It's not that I was disappointed by the cats, it was just a shock, and also, at points of the sanctuary I feel like I wasn't apart of it massively, there wasn't ...

2024 at Environmental Scuba Diving

Here’s a more formal and assertive version of your feedback: After months of requesting a detailed schedule for our diving experience, we only received the information after all payments had already been made. To pay €1,500 for a week, only to end up with just four dives, is completely ...

2024 at English Teaching to the community

Unfortunately, my experience was not the best one. The lodging was too far from the project; we had to travel almost two hours to get there. The classes were not organized. After one week, and following my request, I was assigned to a school which was fine but still one hour bus and metro to get ...
