Conservation Volunteering Abroad
With countries across the globe more accessible than ever, the old cliché 'the world is shrinking' is increasingly heard, but we want to shout about the carbon footprint we leave on the destinations we visit, which is at the heart of i-to-i's promise to encourage travellers to leave a positive impression through worthwhile conservation volunteer projects abroad.



For travellers who enjoy the outdoors and have a desire to preserve our precious planet, conservation volunteering is a deeply rewarding travel project overseas, whether you decide to go green with rainforest conservation work in the Amazon in Ecuador, animal rehabilitation in Posadas, Argentina, ecology conservation in Costa Rica, or marine conservation in South Africa.
We also offer specialist conservation projects across the stunning countries of New Zealand and Australia. Volunteer for conservation work overseas and you'll get directly involved with meaningful conservation projects which have been specifically set up to benefit local habitats. You'll live and work in some of the world's most stunning rural locations, alongside local people who specialise in wildlife conservation, environmental conservation and historical preservation.
Our unique conservation volunteer projects help to support and develop some of the most precious natural habitats and animals on the planet, so when you volunteer to do conservation work with i-to-i you know you're really making a direct difference to the world's environment.
