Madidi Travel is an institution that emerged from Eco Bolivia Foundation, creators of the Madidi National Park. (Please see the National Geographic magazine cover story on Madidi of March 2000, a story for which we were the exploratory team and which recognizes our contribution in creating Madidi National Park, the protected area with the greatest biodiversity in the world). Madidi Travel focuses on developing tourism in a way that supports conservation. Our current focus is on the consolidation of Serere, a private protected area in the north eastern part of the Madidi Mosaic.

- Description:
Madidi Travel currently needs highly motivated and committed volunteers to help consolidate Serere, a 4000 hectare area in floodplain (varzea ) rainforest, an area on the Beni river (Amazon headwaters) with four lakes, and a wide variety of eco systems, flora and fauna. The difficult work of exploring, establishing infrastructure, and protection, has advanced considerably. At this stage, with the help of good volunteers, we could make a great leap forward in consolidating services and empowering the local staff. Our staff is composed of indigenous people from the Madidi Mosaic, and some city youth which has undergone rehabilitation after traumatic youth experiences and has an opportunity to develop new skills and enjoy the healing powers of nature. Volunteers cooks are now needed. We are establishing a café/cultural center in Rurrenabaque with the objective of giving local youth more access to culture and healthier values, and we have food services in our protected area of Serere. We seek two cooks with experience in the preparation of healthy food, leaning toward vegetarian. The two cooks would alternate between Serere and Rurrenabaque so that they can each enjoy the best of both worlds. - Applicant Requirements:
