 | At Work and Travel South Africa we are dedicated to promote partnerships between international volunteers and local conservation authorities and community organizations. Our projects benefit environmental protection agencies and contribute to the development of poorer communities around South Africa. Volunteers are able to make real connections with the local people, staff and wildlife of South Africa as they immerse themselves in the local culture and enjoy the natural splendour of the country. Volunteers return home with many new friends, a greater personal understanding of their own abilities, and an appreciation for the unique challenges and opportunities of this beautiful country. |
