Kindly forward to the YETI list serve
Wildlife Conservation Society-India program (WCS) and Center for Wildlife
Studies (CWS) are looking for volunteers to participate in a conservation
project on large mammals in Nagaland, Northeast India. Volunteers have an
exciting opportunity to be a part of a team that is conducting ecological
and social surveys across the state. Volunteers will be part of the team,
camp in remote villages in Nagaland, and conduct ecological surveys for
mammals, focussing on ungulates.
We are particularly looking for volunteers who are dedicated to
conservation, do not mind hardships related to camping out in the field,
have prior experience in conducting ecological surveys and identifying
signs of wildlife species, and are good team-players. We particularly
welcome volunteers from Nagaland or other parts of Northeast India who are
looking for an opportunity to get more involved in conservation in the
region.
We expect volunteers to come for a *minimum period of two weeks*.
Field-related expenses (food and stay) will be taken care of. Volunteers
are expected to bear the cost of travelling to and from Dimapur, Nagaland.
Travel costs within Nagaland will be taken care of. Preference will be
given to candidates who can commit themselves for a longer duration, and
who have prior field experience.
Interested candidates may express their interest*
to bhavendujoshi3@xxxxxxxxx <bhavendujoshi3@xxxxxxxxx>*, with the Subject
line ‘Interest in Volunteering opportunity in Nagaland’. Please be sure to
include prior experience in conducting ecological surveys, a short
paragraph on why this opportunity is of interest, and an indication of the
time period(s) over which you can volunteer.
