Well it's been a few months of correspondence with eco-volunteer companies to see if we could find one that was a good fit for the turtle conservation project at Moso. After talking with quite a few companies it seemed like Global Vision International (GVI) would be the best fit for our little project here.
So while the discussions have gone well the final step before approval was to have someone from GVI come to the site to visit. Just as a final check to make sure the site was suitable, the community was really onboard, etc.
The trip went well I think. We had some good discussions with the community. Went over to check out the beach (sadly no turtles were found but some beach barbecued fresh fish helped to soften the disappointment a bit I think). And we picked out the site for the volunteer bungalows.
And after the trip was finished the final verdict was that GVI, Wan Smolbag and the community would give this project a go. You can find the GVI webpage for this project at http://www.gvi.co.uk/pages/projectDetail.asp?expedition=116
