Program Description

WildVenture - Internships in Mozambique!

Description: 

This project offers a world class opportunity to assist with marine research and conservation. You will spend time in the Indian Ocean surveying the majestic Manta Ray along some of the most beautiful coastal areas in Mozambique.

Five reasons to intern with us!

Engage in real world research and meaningfully contribute to marine conservation.

You will learn how to measure manta rays using underwater lasers, how to identify and run ID programs, how to evaluate divers impacts and much more.

The volunteer program not only helps to better understand the reefs and manta ray population but also provide opportunities to underprivileged Mozambicans to engage in marine research and conservation.

The program is ideal for students that want to get practical experience in marine science. The project also provides support for students that want to develop their own thesis or undergraduate project in this region. There are opportunities available with humpback whales, rocky reef communities, manta rays etc.

At least 75% of WildVenture profits are put directly back into the projects themselves.
