Volunteer Park Ranger Program

We offer the chance to support the mission of the conservation of Protected Areas in Colombia through volunteer work. The volunteer service can be performed for a minimum of one month and up to a maximum six months. Being a Volunteer Park Ranger is an experience of a lifetime and the training that it provides generates an awareness of the biological and cultural diversity of Colombia. The Volunteer Park Ranger Service transcends borders; ideologies; religions; cultures; ethnic groups; and social and economic strata. The program was created to channel the spontaneous desire of persons who wish to contribute their knowledge; skills and qualities in service to the country’s development. It targets an exercise of coexistence and solidarity leading to peace as a way of life; and an awareness of the need to conserve the nation’s representative ecosystems. Participation in the Volunteer Park Ranger Service is an opportunity to get close to the natural and cultural wealth of Colombia and to the way in which the country manages the conservation and the valuation of its resources.

The volunteer supports the conservation process; performing activities such as: monitoring and research; prevention; control and surveillance; support in conservation processes of the area; measurement of climatic parameters; work with communities; preparation of didactic material; audio-visual guides; communication. We require volunteers of different profiles and professions; who want to support the conservation process.
