General information
The Katelios Group is supported in all its activities by a good number of enthusiastic volunteers, especially in the summer.
The first volunteers usually come in May, just before the first turtles come to lay their eggs on the beach, in order to get everything ready.
The last volunteers leave in October, when the last nests hatch.
We consider everyone who writes to us asking to become a volunteer. We do not ask for specific skills or background. All we ask for is flexibility and motivation.
Volunteers have to act responsibly at all times and adapt to small community living.
We take volunteers for at least one month.
Volunteers work on average 7-8 hours a day and have one day off per week.
Motivation
If you want to give your contribution to preserve the environment where we all live
if you think that nature is not there for us to exploit it
if you look suspiciously at those who consider nature a part of 'our resources'
if your question is not 'what can we make out of it?' but rather 'what can we do for it?'
if you wonder how it happened that people and nature have become enemies
if you feel that there is more to life than human life
if you love life, and you want to see if you can understand it better
then you are welcome to join us.
Our wider goal is to promote the concept that we cannot destroy the place where we live.
