Volunteer, Research or Study Abroad with Earth Sessions
Earth Sessions develops and supports wildlife research, conservation and community development projects in developing countries. Following the success of our 2008 pilot expeditions, places are available on two unique, challenging research and volunteer expeditions in remote parts of Ecuador and Peru...
Earth Sessions have worked for two years with the Pavacachi indigenous community in the Ecuadorian Amazon to develop the remote Pavacachi Research Station. Only accessible by a 200km flight into the Amazon, the remoteness and wildlife are second to none. We aim to assist the community to preserve 53 000 hectares of primary rain forest, through offering volunteer and research expeditions into the Amazon. The location combines opportunities for wildlife research, conservation biology, wildlife photography and community developement activities. Pavacachi is a huge unspoilt tract of Primary Forest, and provides the chance to see, photograph and study some of the rarest and most cryptic wildlife in the Amazon, such as Anacondas, Jaguar, River Dolphins and Spider Monkeys. We have hosted studies for the London Natural History Museum, undergraduate, Masters and Phd students and volunteers. We are developing community projects to address child illiteracy, poor nutrition, water and energy problems to improve the lives of the indigenous community. Get involved...
A Community Development volunteer opportunity with a difference - combine surfing with sustainability. Assist the youth from a Peruvian desert fishing community to gain access to the world's longest waves, right in their own backyard, previously unattainable due to poverty! Our project partners 'WAVES for Development' have been donated 400 new surfboards, and we help to implement their community development programs focusing on swimming, surfing, conservation, nutrition, English language, arts and crafts and social entrepreneurship, while surfing remote uncrowded waves! The project offers the unique opportunity for volunteers to Surf or Learn to Surf, study Spanish, teach English, help with construction projects and customise your own involvement to improve the lives of the local community.
