Many people have contacted us to express an interest in participating in the expeditions sponsored by the National Geographic Society. Unfortunately, the Society does not recruit volunteers. That duty falls to the scholars and explorers who receive grants from our Committee for Research and Exploration. They generally enlist graduate students who are already familiar with their work.
