We invite you to be part of a serious conservation initiative breaking new ground on both scientific and cultural fronts. As such this project is not a ‘holiday camp’, but committed individuals have the time of their lives. Students who join our program, experience our project as a turning point in their lives, in terms of personal growth, understanding of their life’s purpose, a deepening sense of value and values, spiritual growth, and a genuine commitment to making a difference.
