Is the Amazon rainforest on your bucket list? Join us in Peru for this volunteering opportunity that lets you experience and make a difference in the Amazon jungle.

The Conservation and Reforestation project involves planting trees, removing non-native species, monitoring animals, and raising awareness of environmental conservation in surrounding communities. At the same time, learn about the jungle and the people in the area. 

Volunteer in Peru for 2–12 weeks, spending the first one or two days in Cusco for the orientation. Then, travel to our Jungle Project in the Amazon where you work 4–8 hours each day, from Monday to Saturday, depending on the current needs. Typical tasks include the following:

- Assisting with animal research
- Delivering workshops in local communities
- Planting trees, orchids, and shrubs
- Helping with scientific research in areas like chemistry and biology, alongside local professionals
- Teaching English to the local staff and community members

This program is open to volunteers aged 18 and older. We also welcome young participants aged 16 with a legal guardian or 17 with signed Parental Consent.
