Volunteering in Bali with FNPF on Nusa Penida island is a fun way to learn about conservation and community development, y una buena forma de conocer las comunidades tradicionales balineses en una hermosa isla. As Nusa Penida is only a 45-minute boat trip away from Bali, you can combine a holiday in Bali with the experience of volunteering with FNPF on Nusa Penida. Damos la bienvenida a las personas, parejas o grupos más grandes.

Acerca de Nusa Penida, Bali
Nusa Penida is a small, beautiful, and unspoilt island, and has stunning beaches, asombrosos arrecifes de coral, terreno colina rocosa, sheer cliffs. Traditional Balinese village culture (la agricultura, la producción de algas, ikat tejido tradicional, and religious activities) has been maintained, untouched by tourism. Very few western tourists visit Nusa Penida. You won’t find hotels, bares o restaurantes en esta isla.
Acerca de FNPF y el Santuario de Aves Nusa Penida
FNPF ha estado funcionando a su conservación y proyectos de desarrollo comunitario en Nusa Penida desde 2004, with a focus on wildlife. Rebuilding populations of endangered Indonesian bird species, incluyendo aves emblema de Bali, el estornino de Bali (Leucopsar rothschildi, también conocido como Mynah Rothschild, Bali Mynah, y Bali Jalak), has been one of FNPF’s main activities.
Al motivar y movilizar a la protección basada en la comunidad de aves de todos los pueblos de la isla, FNPF has transformed the whole island of Nusa Penida into a unique bird sanctuary where endangered birds can be released by FNPF to live and breed safely in the wild. Todos los 41 villages have passed a local Balinese village regulation making it a social obligation for residents to protect birds from poachers and bird traders. Elsewhere in Indonesia, bird poachers remain the greatest threat to endangered birds.
Ahora estamos trabajando con los pueblos seleccionados para extender esta protección basada en la comunidad de la vida silvestre que incluyen las tortugas marinas. One village has agreed to work with FNPF to monitor and protect the turtles, y replantar los árboles de mangle. We will construct a monitoring post and potentially start a turtle hatchery similar to the one we run in Kalimantan.
A cambio de la protección basada en la comunidad de la vida silvestre, FNPF patrocinadores a los niños a asistir a la escuela y la universidad; funciona una biblioteca comunitaria; fondos de clases de baile tradicional; enseña a la agricultura sostenible; grows and freely distributes tree saplings for villages to generate future income from agro-forestry; and plants trees on degraded land to restore forests. Education and economic improvements that are in harmony with the environment enable the local communities to improve their well-being and participation in conservation. The restoration of forests reduces soil erosion, increases rainfall and provides economic benefit to residents and a habitat for birds.

A volunteer’s schedule
En general, we would like volunteers to work with our staff during the mornings and then use their free time to enjoy the island. Le animamos a visitar los numerosos pueblos de la isla, because this is an important way of showing the local population that FNPF is bringing tourists to Nusa Penida. Volunteers generally work for 3 – 4 hours a day on the afore-mentioned activities.
In addition, we invite locals to come to the FNPF Centre in the evenings to practice their spoken English and we request that volunteers are available to provide conversational English classes.
Lastly, we welcome any specialist skills that can help our work. According to the availability of volunteers with specific skills, we can organize specific events, such as music and yoga classes for the local youth.
Overall, we ask for a pro-active attitude and we are seeking volunteers who want to participate and who are willing to find ways to help. Note that our staff-members are locals from Nusa Penida. They will often be too intimidated to ask a western volunteer to do work. Therefore, it is partly up to you to pro-actively ask them what you can do to help.
