Or visit us on the web www.wildlifeworldwide.com11Volunteer holidaysConservation is crucial to us, and we know that it is to you, too. We offer a few carefully-selected destinations and projects, which you can get involved in. All of them give you the opportunity to help local communities research and protect their fragile environments and wildlife. You'll generally spend a week or two on a project, whatever's appropriate to make a difference, with time allowed to explore the country afterwards, if you wish.Look out for this icon.. Festival of Wildlife - the 2010 Festival of Wildlife took us to the Pantanal, Brazil. Here we supported two local organisations working to conserve macaws and jaguars. They're conducting vital research into these two most precious species. We also reserved a proportion of the £4,300 raised to go to sending disadvantaged young people abroad, to gain an understanding of the natural world around them. . Zambia - we support two schools in Zambia's Luangwa Valley. Over the years we have helped Yosefe Primary School build a comprehensive library for the school and the surrounding community, and more recently we have secured funding for the construction of a new classroom block. At Mkasanga School to the north, we have secured funding for a whole range of classroom facilities - desks, chairs, blackboards and even windows.As well as contributing to these charities, you can travel on any of our new and exciting Volunteer Holidays.BRAZIL AfricaFabulous game parks with guaranteed wildlife sightings and breathtaking scenery combine to make Africa one of the world's top wildlife viewing areas.
