... FOR FULL-TIME EMPLOYMENT

The ESC is run by a small team at present and employment opportunities are few. For specific posts that are currently available, please see JOBS page.

... FOR VOLUNTEER HELPERS

The ESC welcomes enquiries from potential volunteers who are well qualified in environmental sciences and/or education.

In general, longer term volunteers are most useful to us and will benefit most from on-the-job training and experience. Volunteers are responsible for their own food and accommodation costs.

At the moment, we would love to hear from teaching assistants
(eg. student teachers) and qualified and experienced geography /  biology teachers (eg. retired) to do occasional teaching days.

... FOR RESEARCH

The ESC welcomes research co-operation initiatives from anyone pursuing, or interested in starting, research related to the environment of Western Cyprus.

Normally, visiting researchers will be expected to provide their own food and accommodation, and to pay a fee for the use of lab/office/library facilities at the Centre.

However, the ESC will consider sponsoring, through the provision of free facilities, any research which will directly contribute to its aims and activities. This could include: flora and fauna of the area (especially invertebrates), any ecological research, physical landscape processes, impacts of tourism and other human activities on the region, social / economic studies of rural communities.
