Its been the volunteers that have joined us so far that have worked to make everything we have done possible. The achievements have been far greater than we ever expected and have led to changes we never imagined possible in two years.
So.....
Ever wanted to make a difference, work and live in a developing country where you can meet different people and experience new culture? Are you ready for some new experiences and feel like it is time to take a break? Ever wanted to physically help protect the seas and oceans from Human impacts, we work together with the local people those impacts affect, helping them to ensure it will survive for generations to come?
Marine Conservation Cambodia is always looking for volunteers and interns to help us continue our efforts in protecting Cambodia's marine environment as well as contributing to the well being of the local communities. We are looking for Volunteers who wish to support us in realizing our mission and goals. If you feel you have something to offer the project please contact us. The more support we get the bigger difference we can make. Marine Conservation Cambodia has great opportunities for you to be involved in our crucial activities to save Cambodia's precious marine life.
So enough of the sales pitch. We need your help, the more people involved the more we can continue to achieve, whether you have experience or not there is always plenty of work to get involved in. This is a pioneering project changing the tide of destruction and allowing a new outlook for Cambodia's marine environment.
You Really do make a difference.
We Currently have two project locations:
Our project base on Koh Rong Samloem has been established for 4 years and runs most of our main science programs it also has the options of teaching, healthcare and community work. This project has gone from small grassroots to big grassroots over the last 4 years but has never lost the passion or family feel that got it started.
And our new project location on Koh Rong was started by the request of the community based there after they witnessed our work with the community of Mai Pei Bie on Koh Rong Samloem, this project has only been operational for 1 year and is still very much small grassroots, it has mainly focused on community work so far but in only a short time Kylie who runs the project has build an amazing playground for the local school, an incinerator to handle village rubbish problems, set up a small english school and fully integrated Marine Conservation Cambodia into the small fishing community on the east side of the island.
