Dublin, Dublin City, Ireland beBeeConservation Full time €25,000 - €35,000

Our organization is dedicated to the conservation of critically endangered sea turtles. In Costa Rica, we have a unique opportunity for you to join our team as a volunteer and contribute to this vital work.

Job Description

The project is based in the north of the Caribbean province of Limn, where the international NGO has been working together with scientists, conservationists, and educators to promote sustainable sea turtle projects in the wider Caribbean region.

This community-based Conservation programme works closely with the local community of Pacuare, training former poachers in sea turtle conservation and collaborating with volunteers to protect these critically endangered animals.

As a volunteer, you will play an important part in Pacuare, generating income for the local inhabitants through your fees. The project strives to increase alternative livelihoods for coastal communities, reducing the need for poaching and hunting turtles and achieving long-lasting sustainable sea turtle management.

Required Skills and Qualifications

Ideal candidates will have a strong background in environmental science, marine biology, zoology, ecology, or conservation. You should be passionate about protecting endangered species and willing to learn new skills in a challenging yet rewarding environment.

We are looking for individuals who can commit to at least 3 months (or 7 days as a volunteer) and participate in nightly and daily beach patrols, as well as operate a hatchery. Your experience will include hands-on conservation efforts, including research, plastic contamination solutions, and community projects.

Benefits

As a volunteer, you will enjoy a range of benefits, including:

  • all food
  • accommodation
  • pre-departure and in-country support
  • orientation and all project-related activities

Our organization will cover the costs of food, accommodation, and other expenses, leaving you free to focus on the conservation work.

Others

It's essential to note that this opportunity is designed to provide you with the contacts and experience needed to further your career. You will not replace any staff but work alongside them, learning new skills and contributing to the success of the project.

Additionally, please be aware that all information provided is subject to change, so it's crucial to check the most up-to-date information on our website when applying.
