Date: 24th July - 14th August (arrival and departure dates in/out of Pangkalan Bun, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia Borneo).
Location: Tropical forest. Central Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo.
Project: A conservation-based project to renovate PONDOK AMBUNG RESEARCH STATION?, situated within Tanjung Puting National Park. This Research Station enables the Foundation to carry out vital conservation-focused research on the ecology of the park and the biodiversity that exists within. Participating in this project will provide a unique opportunity to experience conservation fieldwork whilst living in orangutan habitat!
Includes a tour of Tanjung Puting National Park (guaranteed sightings of orangutans) and Camp Leakey.
The Volunteer Programme not only helps the Orangutan Foundation in the field but it also provides a base of committed supporters. Past volunteers all agree that taking part was an unforgettable and amazing experience. Many have gone on to have a successful career in wildlife conservation.
