[Coral-List] Voluntary work during Ramadhan on Chumbe Island Coral Park, Tanzania

[Conservation Chumbe]

Dear all coral list members,

 

Chumbe Island Coral Park, Tanzania, can offer two volunteers to work as
Ramadan Rangers for one month starting on Friday, the 21st of August, 2009.
During the holy month of Ramadan our Zanzibari rangers can not swim in the
sea during daytime, so we need one or two people to volunteer as snorkel
guides. The job involves guiding the guests at the eco lodge while
snorkelling inside the marine park, hence many hours in the water every day.
A background in marine science and experience from diving/snorkelling is a
requirement for the positions. You must be a strong swimmer and trained in
first aid. CHICOP will provide basic accommodation (staff room) and simple
food with the staff when on the island. We recommend two friends applying as
this is a great opportunity to experience the famous Chumbe Island protected
reef and to work as a team with our guests (maximum of 14 overnight guests).

 

For further information please check our website www.chumbeisland.com, where
you can find our newest newsletter.

 

We look forward to receiving applications (cover letter and CV) in the near
future; deadline is April 11th, 2009! 

 

Best wishes / Lina Nordlund and the Chumbe Ranger Team
