The volunteers, under the coordination of WWF staff and marine protected area technicians, will support- monitoring and protecting turtle nests (ATTENTION. This require some days to wake up at 5.30 AM to go to beaches at the sunrise).- assistance to injured turtles or injured birds.- cleaning beaches- monitoring of protected areas- support for the creation of paths in natural areas, with the relevant illustrative signage.A study part is planned to introduce the theme of the social use of property confiscated from the bosses of local criminal organisations.
The accommodation will be provided inside the CELA itself in shared rooms.Volunteers will cook by themselves and with leaders, with food provided by the organization.
The area is one of the best costal areas of Italy, place of the second largest European Marine protected areas, surrounded by several European areas of environmental interests. The inland mountains are home to some river areas with waterfalls and picturesque lakes. Volunteers will have the opportunity to visit all the areas. Study and information activities will be carried out on migration issues (Cutro was the site of a shipwreck in which dozens of migrants lost their lives) and on legality issues (CELA is housed in a property confiscated from a criminal associate and now used for social purposes).
WWF Crotone runs the CELA Center for Environmental Education and Legality in San Leonardo di Cutro, a small town on the Calabrian coast.The area is famous for its beaches where turtles lay their eggs and for the presence of other areas of important naturalistic interest.The center works in collaboration with local authorities and nonprofit organizations to manage the Caporizzuto marine protected area, maintain a Turtle Hospital, and monitor and clean local beaches.
Volunteers must be able to swimm and be ready to work also in early morning and/or in the case of warm weather.
Ability to swimm is compulsory. Some days works will start at 5.30 AM to monitor turtles nests.
