Voluntary work in Namibia

Namibia gap year
Voluntary work in Namibia is a unique and rewarding opportunity to get close to some of Africa’s most beautiful wildlife. Above all, of course, voluntary work in Namibia is all about providing care and support to vulnerable or endangered animals. Voluntary work in Namibia is a great way to get to know local people on a far more intimate and meaningful level – working alongside local people on a daily basis you gain a real insight in to the local culture and way of life.


Namibia voluntary work

We have two superb Namibia career break programmes, both of which enable volunteers to care for endangered animals. If you would like your Namibia voluntary work to involve caring for a diverse range of animals an ideal option is to volunteer at ‘Noah’s Ark’, an inspirational animal conservation sanctuary and rehabilitation centre which cares for numerous different species. Alternatively your Namibia voluntary work could focus solely on caring for Namibia’s gravely endangered desert elephants.
