MADAGASCAR VOLUNTARY
PIONEER MADAGASCAR - Volunteering Opportunities in Madagascar.
Madagascar is one of the biologically richest yet humanly
poorest countries in the world. Most plants and animals
are endemic to the island and most are in danger as a
result of habitat destruction. It is estimated that 96%
of the island's forests have been lost, mainly due to
slash-and-burn agriculture. Only 27% of the 15 million
population have access to clean drinking water and the
mortality rate for children under 5 is a staggering one
in ten.
Pioneer
Madagascar is the volunteer programme of Azafady, a registered
UK-based charity (no. 107121) and Madagascar-based NGO.
Through Pioneer Madagascar volunteers can experience working
with a grass-roots organisation combating the problems
of extensive deforestation and extreme poverty on this
unique island. The programme focuses on integrated conservation
and development initiatives which work closely with local
people. Each scheme lasts 10 weeks, places are extremely
limited and subject to a selection process. Approximately
80% of the 'minimum donation' go directly to running the
projects; the remaining 20% covers your costs in-the-field.
We have schemes starting in October 2001, January 2002,
April 2002 and July 2002.
During
placements volunteers will learn to speak basic Malagasy
and gather skills relevant to working in the fields of
development, conservation and sustainable livelihoods.
Our projects are led by some of the most competent conservationists
and development workers on the island; they are based
on communities' expressed needs and therefore provide
an insight for volunteers into real on-the-ground work
- they are not set up simply for volunteers. Volunteers
will work on an extensive array of projects from beach
surveys of endangered turtles to the building of wells
in remote villages.
Azafady's
conservation-based projects have been endorsed by, among
others, Sir David Attenborough and the Royal Botanic Gardens
at Kew, while for our Sustainable Livelihoods Initiative
we recently received the Sting and Trudie Styler Award,
one of the coveted Whitley Awards for conservation.
For
further information on Azafady please visit our website
on www.madagascar.co.uk and for more details on the Pioneer
Madagascar volunteer programme (and application forms)

UK VOLUNTARY WORK
Voluntary Work at the Monkey Sanctuary. The Monkey Sanctuary
accepts applications for volunteer work from people of
all nationalities.
General
Information: The Monkey Sanctuary is home to a colony
of woolly monkeys, established in 1964 as a refuge for
ex-pet and ex-zoo woolly monkeys. The Sanctuary received
recognition as the first place where this beautiful species
of monkey bred outside its own habitat in the South American
rainforests. The Sanctuary is open to the public during
the summer months. The care of the monkeys is in the hands
of an experienced team of people. As a conservation and
educational unit run by a small community, the Sanctuary
attracts people of varied backgrounds and interests. The
Sanctuary team share concern for animal welfare, conservation
and global political issues. The Sanctuary is not a scientific
centre, rather, a community of people working to better
the captive life of the primate community here.
Volunteers:
Over the course of a year, the Sanctuary receives several
dozen people for voluntary work, with up to seven staying
at any one time. First time volunteers are booked in for
either two, three or four weeks. Sometimes placements
can be extended, depending on requirements at the time.
Usually a few people each year stay for longer periods,
often people who have volunteered before and wish to return.
Volunteers must be 18 years or older to stay in the house.
Younger volunteers are accepted, but have to arrange their
own accommodation. Volunteers need a workable knowledge
of the English language. No qualifications are needed
- volunteers usually come because they share a concern
for animal welfare, conservation and the need to question
people's attitude to other animals.
Voluntary
Work: All year - Volunteers join the Sanctuary team in
cleaning monkey territory, preparing monkey food, domestic
help, gardening, street collecting and general maintenance.
Summer - The Sanctuary is open to the public from Easter
to the end of September. During these times volunteers
help in various ways: serving in the Sanctuary's vegetarian
cafe, and sweeping paths and public areas. Winter: From
October to Easter, most work is in the grounds and gardens
including monkey territory maintenance. Volunteers help
with building, repairing and painting territory structures,
management of wildlife friendly areas of the gardens and
maintenance of the house and grounds. Volunteers do not
work directly with the monkeys under any circumstances.
Keepers spend many months learning to recognise not only
each individual monkey but also their personalities and
the group dynamics.
Financials:
Volunteers pay £35.00* weekly towards the cost of
accommodation and food. (*£25.00 students / £15.00
unwaged)
Accommodation
and transport: Volunteers live in with the Sanctuary team,
sharing a room with other volunteers. Food is provided
and is vegetarian. We are unable to help with travel costs.
The summer holiday period is very popular, and is therefore
often fully booked months in advance.

RUSSIA VOLUNTARY
Would anybody be interested in having a bit of teaching
experience in Izhevsk, Russia, let me know. That would
involve teaching English at the English evening courses,
up to 15 hours a week and additionally teaching almost
any classes (if one feels like doing it) at a regular
Junior / Junior High School. Can be anything from PE to
Physics... (Done in English or any other major language,
just let me know which!).
The
time one can or wants to start up all this is negotiable.
Almost anytime is fine. One up to a few months stay is
possible. We will provide you with room (homestay) and
board (nothing too fancy, but the basic needs will certainly
be covered), forward your visa support papers (all expenses
paid), help you arrange your travel around, in, from Russia
in the most economical way possible, assist you with itinerary
and transportation advice. We will be happy to see you
on our outdoor and bicycle trips too. No extra money paid
for that, just the regular contribution, everyone makes
up to the trip expenses.
Anyone
needs more details, drop me a line or two! Web site: http://www.sv-agency.udm.ru

*
Last month we asked how much you intend to save before
leaving for your travels? 58% intend to save over £1000
(or equivalent), 33% would prefer to wait until they have
£2000, while only 9% set off with just enough cash
to last a couple of weeks until they find work.
Colette
put it best: "I would love to just get up and go, or see
how long it takes to find a job - but to start the experience,
and appreciate fully what that culture has to offer, I
would need to feel relaxed at the beginning and take the
pressure of money (or lack of it!) away.
If
I were patient or able to raise over £2000 quickly,
I would opt for that. However, I am neither so my answer
has to be C) over £1000."
