Description:
Nepal's breathtaking landscape and exotic wilderness are remarkable settings for a multitude of diversions for volunteers devoted to preserving the beauty of nature for future generations. Regrettably, Nepal's pure natural resources particularly its forests deteriorate more each day due to the nation's high dependency on natural resources. Global Crossroad's Conservation Project is designed to support the conservation efforts of Nepalese by offering free tree seedlings for planting. Our conservation nursery project is located in the rural village of Chitwan. The place is in southern, flatter part of Nepal, which borders India. Chitwan is still famous for National Park, but the once abundance greenery is fast disappearing.
Highlights:
As a volunteer in Nepal, you will prepare nursery beds, sow seeds, weed, trim, prune, and thin various indigenous tree species. The planted seedlings grown and nurtured by our volunteers are later distributed at no charge to villages in other parts of Nepal. Depending on the season, additional tasks may include planting, collecting seeds, replanting, eliminating diseased trees, and inventorying fauna and flora.
Qualifications:
No qualifications are required.
