International solidarity volunteering

Position: Scientific Program Manager

"After volunteering for 8 months in the Philippines, I agreed to leave as a Volontaire de Solidarité International, initially for 12 months. Unfortunately, due to the lockdown in both France and the Philippines in March 2020, I had to cut my mission short and return to France prematurely. Despite this slight change of plans, I loved my volunteer experience, both working with the association and living in the Philippines. Palawan is an extraordinary island populated by incredible people, and my experience was enriching both professionally and personally, with the discovery of a new culture and rich, warm human exchanges.

"Spending a year working alongside the Bearcat Study Program research team, and especially at ABConservation, was a real pleasure for me. I enjoyed taking part in this NGO's various initiatives to conserve and protect one of the least known species threatened with extinction, the binturong. I learned a lot, gained more experience, and of course worked with incredible people like Princess Joy Deriada, Rollyna Marie Domingo, Romain Pageaud, Priscylia Luit, Agathe Debruille, Pauline Kayser and my interns Sylvia, Jabes, Capucine, Liezel, Jesie and many more! My deepest gratitude to the team. 

Maraming maraming salamat po. Ikinagagalak naming makatrabaho kayo!

*Thank you very much. It was a pleasure working with you*.

My adventure ends now, but ABConservation's scientific objective never ends! I wish the new scientific team all the best.

Binturongly!🐾 "
