Amazon Rainforest Conservation in Brazil

So you want to help us conserve the Amazon? You will be based in the state of Acre, and fly into the state capitsl; Rio Branco. Your accommodation will be with an indigenous family who will serve you 2 meals per day.

Due to illegal logging and other devastating activities, 45% of the
rainforest in Acre is protected by the Brazilian government, and the
remaining 55% is very, very, closely monitored.

Our project then is to replant and protect the most endangered trees,
plants and rainforest fauna. We do this by collecting seeds and fruits
from endangered species, and replanting them in a nursery environment. The
nursery stage is usually about 3 months in duration, after which the
plants and seedlings are replanted in the Amazon Rainforest.

The project objective is to replant some 50,000 hectares per year, we are
currently only managing 2000 hectares per year - less than 5% of
target..……This is why volunteers are needed.

You also
have the opportunity of helping with skills teaching, if you wish! -
(teaching young people/children learn new skills using the materials
available in their own environment...)
