Costa Rica is one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, and therefore one of the best places in the world to do a foreign environment internship.During this internship, interns will have the opportunity to participate in research conducted by the partner organisation in conjunction with highly regarded conservation organisations such as the Costa Rican Ministry of Environment, Energy and Telecommunications (MINAET), and Sea Turtle Conservancy.
Turtle research projects take place on beaches during the turtle nesting season and focus on recording data from mother turtles and hatchling success. Interns in the Animal Care Internship will also have the opportunity to enter data into relevant databases and learn more about how these data are analysed.

Our partner organisation works closely with local authorities to collect, process and analyse data on wildlife in Costa Rica.
In partnership with the Ministry of Environment, Energy and Telecommunications of Costa Rica (MINAET), our partner organisation works closely with local authorities to collect, process and analyse data on wildlife in Costa Rica. This information will be used to take national measures to optimise and protect the country’s environment.
In 2015, our humanitarian mission in Costa Rica (educational program with children) was featured on the renowned National Geographic Traveler 50 Experiences list. This project is always very popular with volunteers who want to engage in a sustainable humanitarian mission and learn Spanish at the same time.
For more information, see ’50 Tours of a Lifetime’ from National Geographic Traveler.
Our partner organisation sits on the United Nations International Commission on Sustainable Tourism. All their initiatives and volunteer projects are led by experts in collaboration with the local population and national governments.
As a non-profit organisation, our conservation project is completely transparent. Volunteer contributions are used to cover on-reserve project planning (reconnaissance, team recruitment and logistical support), direct field costs (transportation, lodging, staff meals) and finally to support the project itself. Without the physical and financial help of volunteers, this project would not have been possible.
