Turtle Conservation Project

The long, sandy beaches of Northern Cyprus are nesting grounds for the green and loggerhead turtles. Threatened by development, pollution and other hazards across the Mediterranean, EMU is engaged in an ongoing project to preserve these beautiful and valuable animals. This summer, a unique opportunity is available to visiting students to take part in the conservation project and develop skills, knowledge and awareness of environmental issues. All you need to apply is the willingness to be involved, and a basic knowledge of English.
