About Program
Join us on our annual marine research expedition and research Endangered green turtles in our head-starting facilities, study Critically Endangered dolphins, sharks, rays, and vultures, and receive marine mammal medic training!
We pride ourselves in allowing individuals to gain real-life, hands-on conservation experience with leading professionals, where they can live and breathe the social, economic, physical, and emotional challenges researchers encounter. We will also take in the culture with school visits, djembe drums, and dancing at a beach bonfire.
You will delve into the African bush and/or sea and be presented with unique research projects. Our projects constantly evolve as new blue-skies research arises as we conserve species on the brink of extinction! We have rediscovered several species, increased the known population of an endangered primate by 24%, and contributed to numerous significant scientific publications!
Join us on 23rd August - 06th September 2024
