Deltagarens profil
A more scientific profile is preferably sought and / or related to the environment (because many of the tasks have a scientific and conservation character). When this need is covered, the horizon opens in looking for people with other varied profiles with or without higher education, in order to have a multidisciplinary team because it refers to the interests and abilities of each volunteer. Also volunteers with good communication skill are welcome to work in our visitor center and to manage the Reserve social networks.
