Volunteer Work South Africa

Now that you've found LEO Africa, you can stop looking for gap year conservation work or volunteer work in South Africa. As a conservation volunteer, you will work in the Selati Game Reserve, which is 30,000ha of African wilderness in the Limpopo Province of South Africa.

The Volunteer Project

Your volunteer work takes you out into the wilderness as you track and record the movements, behaviour and ecological impact of a lion pride; you will also gather data about leopard, prey species, elephant and white rhino; and you will learn about conservation and wildlife management; and you can even get South African Field Guide Certification.

FGASA Game Ranger Certification

"Doing a FGASA qualification during our stay, has made the volunteer experience even more rewarding and enriching. After learning interesting theoretical knowledge through studying, it was awesome to put that knowledge into practice when out on the drives, making great drives even better.......experience overload!!!!! Well worth it." Rebecca Disks, Feb 08
