Play a key role in preserving this unique wildlife paradise. Based in a fascinating biological station you’ll get stuck in planting new crops, conserving the natural habitat and taking in your incredible new surroundings!Call: 0845 344 7592
If conservation is your passion, this project is for you! Focused on keeping the Galapagos as pristine and stunning as possible, the programme has been dedicated to the research, conservation, and management of ecologically important habitats since 1985.
You will be working Monday to Friday between 8am and 4pm with lots of breaks! Your role as a volunteer will be centred on protecting habitats, planting trees, maintaining areas of natural beauty, light building and helping out with a little eco-farming and community development. There will also be opportunities to get involved with other initiatives such as bird observation, coffee production and environmental education at local schools.
