Well, it took me by surprise to receive a call from Claudia. She is in India at this moment and saturday she will have a chat with the forrest department in Tadoba. She will ask if I can do my practical placement with that organization. I so hope that that will work out, since then there are no arguments from school against me going there, working on the education project or a project about land use.
Even so, I don't stop shopping around on the net. I found some websites with lots of NGO's in all countries and I will surely send most of them an email. Just to make sure, since you never know what help they can be to me this year or next year.
Right that's that for today. I will keep you informed about all the new developments :)

No tigers
Well, it has been a while. I know a blog is supposed to be a bit like your diary. I'm doing quite well then, since my diary was written in maybe 4 times a year :)
Ok, lets get you all up to date.
I thought I had this practical placement sorted, now this is not the case anymore. My placement coordinator wasn't too happy about the lack of guidence I would receive. Also the organization is very small and only just started, so he wasn't sure if this would be an environment where I could learn all the skills I am supposed to learn. To make a long story short, I am not going to have my placement with SCFIndia.
The next question is, where will I have my placement. That I don't know yet. I'm active searching the web for organizations that have anything to do with sustainable tourism, community development, business development, micro financing, and conservation issues combined with transfer of knowledge/education. This means organizations like Unicef, WWF, CAMAT, Uniek Curacao, etc., have been sent my application letter and resumé, and now I wait for them to respond... It's not nice sitting and waiting, that's for sure.
That's it for today. I better get busy searching for more opportunities for my placement.
All ideas are welcome, as long as the project I can join is out of Europe.
