The site also lists volunteer opportunities in Rio de Janeiro, including one that is focused on environmental conservation at one of the most popular natural parks in the city.

Volunteers would be expected to help for 20 hours a week with tree planting, weed control, and surveys of endangered flora and fauna, among other responsibilities - another volunteer program is located at a community center in Rio de Janeiro that addresses the needs of at-risk youth and their families.

The program focus is on health and education, so volunteers are expected to help with the over 450 children who regularly visit this community center - Traveller's Quest can be contacted via this link.
