Program Details

I am looking for volunteers who are curious and open-minded, happy to adapt to desert life and who want to learn more about Bedouin life. Working hours are from 3 hours to 5 hours (maximum 20 hours per week), depending on the schedule.
The volunteers can stay for a duration of one to three weeks.
I need help with writing content for my website, taking photos/videos, quality review helping with social media. Coding skills are highly desirable.
I would also like to make my company more eco-friendly to protect the desert and its animals, by cleaning it from the plastic and managing the natural resources carefully. If you can help with that I would be very thankful.
During your free time, you can go hiking around the camp, learn Bedouin cooking, enjoy nature, visit Bedouin families or listen to the silence... and you can do some tours with us.
