Being part of an Africa Wild Trails field study is a fantastic way to explore the African wilderness while helping to protect it. Here's a few more reasons why you should get involved!
Help Protect Wildlife
When you join a field study, you’re making a real difference in conservation. You get involved in important tasks like tracking animals and collecting data that supports wildlife protection efforts.
Learn While You Explore
These field studies are not just about seeing wildlife; they’re also about learning. You’ll work with knowledgeable guides and conservationists, gaining practical skills in ecology and biology that you can’t find in a classroom or online.
Connect with Local Communities
Field studies also provide a chance to meet local people and learn about their cultures. Understanding how communities live alongside nature is essential for successful conservation.
Personal Growth
Being in the wild, facing new challenges, and working with others will really help you develop, realising how capable you are, and that one person 'can' make a difference. You’ll make great memories while experiencing the adventure of a lifetime!
Bring Your Own Group
The best and most cost effective way to take part is to put a small group together (8 people minimum). This could be a group of friends (adults or young people), or a work, school, college or university group. As long as you are enthusiastic about wildlife, and want to take part and help the conservation of specific species, we will welcome you!
