Program Description
Volunteer Work with Lemurs in Madagascar
Description
A unique research and conservation program designed to discover more about the lemur species and forest habitats of south-east Madagascar. Living and working amongst some of the most beautiful and remote parts of Madagascar, you will be involved in a number of exciting research and conservation initiatives ranging from the collection of data on endangered lemur species to environmental education with local communities and tree-planting for reforestation purposes. The sites you will visit on this program give a real insight into the amazing diversity of Malagasy landscape: from the south's dry spiny desert, to the rainforest-ringed beauty of the Fort Dauphin region, to the wet coastal forests of the littoral forest zone. This is a very special program that offers a unique opportunity to gain valuable conservation skills and experience as well as make a significant contribution towards helping some of the world's most threatened and remarkable creatures.
