Become A Volunteer In The Amazon

The Tambopata National Reserve is strategically located within a natural corridor of protected areas between Peru and Bolivia, becoming part of the largest biodiversity corridor on the planet. But like the entire Amazon basin, it is exposed to different dangers such as illegal logging, forest fires due to clustering, and illegal mining, among others. Become a volunteer and help us to continue exploring and discovering the biodiversity of the Peruvian Amazon jungle and thus have the tools to continue protecting it.
