Possible fieldwork opportunities
The projects listed here may be able to accommodate volunteers, interested in engaging in fieldwork. None of these projects are managed or administered by ACOR, so you must contact the project director. Not all projects work every year, and not all projects can accommodate volunteers when they do work. The terms of joining projects are unique to the project, its resources, and other considerations. Projects can and do change based on current events, weather, and other factors, often with little or no notice, as is the nature of working in the field. ACOR is not liable for anything that may happen on these projects, as they are entirely independent. You are responsible for understanding the terms and inherent risks of engaging in fieldwork.
