As a bird lover, you’re looking for the perfect way to give back and help protect bird populations. Why not do it while enjoying a beautiful tropical vacation?
Here is your answer, a 7-day volunteer program with amazing opportunities to participate in various roles that all work towards the same goal: protecting birds!
During your work days, you’ll take part in data collection, surveys, environmental and habitat conservation, research and more. The information you collect will be part of implementing the protective measures needed in the locations they are needed. This collaboration, your contribution, makes this work a reality and is extremely important.
