Voluntourism– Sea Turtle Conservation
One of the projects we will offer for non-holistic practitioners is Sea Turtle Conservation. There are 2 conservation groups in Nicaragua- one in San Juan del Sur and the other in Leon who are trying desperately to save the sea turtles from the locals who eat the eggs and use the shells for jewelry to sell to the tourists. Just by building up a foreign presence on those beaches will significantly reduce the slaughter of these endangered creatures. And when foreigners come, they inevitably spend. Only in that manner will we demonstrate to the locals that earning a living from servicing the numbers of enlightened tourists who come to their lovely beach to see and experience the turtles is far more lucrative than feeding the turtle eggs to the few unenlightened tourists.
