Volunteer in Kenya
During your volunteer in Kenya project, you will work directly with people from the Masai Mara community on the Wildlife Research and Conservation project. You will conduct valuable research into the wildlife in the Naboisho Conservation area and you’ll work with local children to encourage passion and engagement with the local wildlife and environment.
The Masai Mara is considered one of the finest safari destinations in all of Africa. Use your free time to take part in one of the various locally run excursions. If seeing the Big 5 from the ground isn’t quite thrilling enough for you, then perhaps consider doing it from the air on a balloon safari. Not only do you get an amazing view of Kenya’s plains, but between July and November, you’ll be in the ideal place to witness the great migration.
Your evenings will be spent under a sky with a seemingly impossible number of stars. By sampling local food and listening to the animals around the plains, you’ll get a feel for what life in a rural Kenyan community is really like and you’ll be able to digest the day’s experiences.
Through your community and conservation work in Kenya, you’ll balance the interests of humans and animals and have a positive, sustainable impact in the Masai Mara. Join us on an internship or volunteer in Kenya project now!
