CHILE

Volunteer Work in Chile’s Top National Park

Program VL/CL-FF102

Torres del Paine National Park in Patagonia is the most popular park in Chile, and one of the most important touristic hotspots. Even though the park is located very far south in the country, numerous visitors come to this national park to explore its unique landscapes, wonderful plants, animals, and most importantly, the incredibly beautiful panoramic mountain view. This volunteer project in Chile devotes itself to the environmental protection and preservation of this impressive natural area. As a volunteer in this Chilean national park, you can contribute to the protection and conservation of the park and support initiatives that aim to preserve the natural and cultural resources of the region.

As a volunteer, there are a variety of interesting tasks and duties that you can engage in. You will live directly on-site and help with reforestation, maintenance, and environmental education. If you enjoy the great outdoors, can handle physical labor, and are someone that is a team player, then this volunteer project in the very south of Chile is perfect for you.

Volunteer Work in Chile: Rescue Center for Monkeys

Program VL/CL-FF103

Although monkeys are not native to Chile, this animal protection center was established to provide a much-needed home for monkeys that have been confiscated by customs at the country’s borders, released from illegal trafficking, or removed from private households, zoos, and circuses. Unfortunately, most of these animals are so limited in their natural survival instincts that complete rehabilitation with the goal of returning them to the wild is no longer possible. Therefore, the center attempts to recreate a species-appropriate natural habitat for the monkeys. If you are fascinated by primates and have always wanted to work with them up-close, then this volunteer project in Chile is perfect for you.
