Biodiversity refers to the variety of life on Earth, encompassing differences in species, genes, and ecosystems. It includes all plants, animals, and microorganisms, their genes, and the ecosystems they form. This diversity is essential for ecosystem health, resilience, and human survival, offering benefits like food, medicine, and climate stability.

On this page, we’re gathering volunteer projects that offer travelers and volunteers from around the world the chance to contribute to environmental and biodiversity conservation causes. Simply browse the volunteer listings that interest you, carefully read the description, and if the project appeals to you, reach out to the hosts (or volunteer program coordinators) using the contact details or instructions provided at the end of the listing.

Some of these programs might have expired.

Please check the publication date of the listing and inquire with the hosts to see if volunteer recruitment is still ongoing.
