Specialist Volunteers    
..................................................................................................  
Specialist volunteer placements are for people who want to take on more responsibility and potentially want to spend more time in Madagascar than the general volunteers. In order to take a specialist post, it is, of course, a prerequisite that you have the associated skills. It would also be preferable to have some previous experience of Madagascar as well. On the most part specialist volunteers are still expected to cover personal costs associated with the work unless funding has already been allocated for the specific project.

MADAGASCAR FACTS
Population of Madagascar is estimated to be almost 17 million (16,979,744). It is growing at a rate of 3.03% per annum

This means that the population is projected to double in 23 years. The steady increase in population is one of the main causes of ongoing deforestation and poverty.
