North Luangwa National Park Camp requires volunteer Doctor
Delia Camp is inside the North Luangwa National Park, just in the Luangwa River Banks. Crossing the river takes around one 1 and a half hours to arrive to Luelo, a village of Chifunda area. The village has a very small hospital, and there are no others in five hours around this village. We want to support the local community and we are ready to give free accommodation, meals and activities to a voluntary doctor that is able to come and work three days per week in the hospital, minimum one month, and maximum five months.
