● Environmental volunteering: It takes place in the Peruvian Amazon jungle:

  - Reserve of Tambopata: There could be maintenance work in ecotourist lodges, wildlife surveying and monitoring (like the Macaw Project), etc… In some tourist lodges they offer a program of resident naturalists and guides and demand more compromise and a longer stay. This post is only for biologists and there is no cost for volunteers.
