Recruitment of Super Volunteers
Wildlife crime is one of the most widespread crimes globally, threatening existence of many endangered species, connected to corruption and injustice.
In the EAGLE Family, we're fighting side by side against it and every victory is a team achievement.
On a daily basis, the path can be long and tough, but exciting. And some of the battles won will leave you with the feeling of making a difference.
We are looking for activists with some experience of living, travelling or working in Africa, as a new generation of independent activists. If you are selected, you will be given a life opportunity to bring real change to the corrupt system from within, to influence the powerbrokers and to fight the good cause for the greater good.
You will be part of a network, given training and tools to pursue the activism path, initially in wildlife related issues and later as you choose.

- Self-confidence (strong internal reference system)
