The Namibian Dolphin Project is a research and conservation organisation based in Walvis Bay, Namibia which has been running for over 10 years. We currently have openings for 2 long-term volunteers for the period 01 Oct to 30 Nov 2018. As an integral part of a small team working with the Field Officer - this is a very hands on experience and a great way to get a wide range of field experience. Volunteers will be directly involved in day to day activities of the research station including on-going field work including small-boat and opportunistic surveys, land-based dolphin surveys, seal entanglement monitoring, hydrophone deployments and recovery, and attendance at post mortem examinations of stranded cetaceans or turtles that may occur. Additionally, volunteers will be involved in data input and processing, public outreach and equipment maintenance. The Namibian Dolphin Project is part of the Sea Search Research and Conservation group, a registered non profit. We request that volunteers pay a financial contribution to cover accommodation, food and training. Accommodation is in shared housing at the NDP Field station.
