Project’s Background:
Join other volunteers in Africa, to work with the local communities and share the coastal culture while planting about 30,000 indigenous trees in 3 weeks. Your contribution will help Kenya to meet international standards of having 10% of its inland to remain a forest by 2030. This can only be achieved through unity and solidarity between the North and the South, while volunteers like you commit their time to work with these willing communities in order to protect their indigenous forests.
This community started with 14 members from different cultural and religious backgrounds coming together with one aim which to change their community ways of thinking about the nature and wildlife. The idea attracted more people around. Now we are urging volunteers to join this Gap year workcamp to help sensitization of the community through environmental awareness. The project is expected to attract a high number of volunteers due to the area tourism attractions: the beach is just 30 minutes away and Shimba Hills National Park is located 10 minutes from the project.
