Cyclades Green Volunteers
About us
Cyclades Green Volunteers is a programme enabling interested active citizens and youth to engage with local communities concerning environmental challenges in the Cyclades islands in Greece.
Especially this year (2021) the programme gives priority to British and Greek (ideally linked to the UK) volunteers as we celebrate the bicentenary of the Greek Revolution, marking Britain’s contribution to the Greek Struggle.
Volunteers are invited to offer environmental work in cooperation with local champions on the Cycladic islands of Andros, Naxos and Syros, and at the same time familiarise themselves with the Cycladic way of life and its unique characteristics.
The Program will focus on two priority areas:
Wildlife protection and conservation
Sustainable waste management
This is a Cyclades Preservation Fund (CPF) programme supported by the British Embassy Athens.
We help the Cyclades become greener
Choose your volunteer position
We accept volunteers above the age of 22 and especially this year (2021) we give priority to British and Greeks linked to the UK as we celebrate the bicentenary of the Greek Revolution, marking Britain’s contribution to the Greek Struggle. We will be able to host other citizens as well in the next phase of the programme.
MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

What People are Saying?
"I volunteered for Naxos Wildlife protection, a first aid care station for wild animals, with a special love for sea turtles. We focused on their protection and conservation efforts.
A very special moment is when a sea turtle completes its treatment successfully and returns to its natural environment!"
