Our conservation and eco-tourism programs are primarily based in the Kakamega Rainforest. The opportunities include a tree nursery and afforestation program, conservation education and outreach program, butterfly farming and community education, and eco-lodge construction which offers accommodation
to tourists visiting the forest. Volunteers can also work in the snake park and training centre to educate the community about the bio-diversity of the forest - exhibit snakes, crocodiles, ostriches and other animals.
Volunteers can get involved in any of these programs depending on their skills and interests.
Verge believes in travel for change. International experience creates global citizens, who can change our planet for the better. This belief is at the core of everything we do.
For more than a decade, Verge has produced quality resources and events to help people experience the world in a meaningful way, through opportunities to study, work and volunteer abroad.
