📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The General Directorate of Youth, Participation and Volunteering (www.xuventude.xunta.es) is a department of the Xunta de Galicia (www.xunta.gal) whose priority is to meet the needs and concerns of the young population living in Galicia, firmly believing that youth has much to contribute to society as a whole. We work to improve the quality of life of young people in our autonomous community, developing actions and programs that benefit them, increase their well-being and allow them to improve their skill.

💼 What the programme involves

We intend to make known the material and cultural heritage of the City of MesEa, specifically the Arboretum or Botanical Garden for its fifteenth anniversary. Activities: 1. Help plant a sensory garden and build a pond in the Messiah Arboretum or Botanical Garden. Creation of a sensory garden, with specimens of plants and aromatic herbs that stimulate the sense of smell as well as the other senses, and that can be visited by groups that increasingly use these spaces as a place of learning. To stimulate the ear we will build a pond with waterfalls taking advantage of the unevenness of the Arboretum, and inside we will plant different species of aquatic plants. 2. Collaborate in the planting of an edible forest and signaling of species. 3. Build insect hotels, bird nest houses and bat houses. The group of participants will make, at the end of the work camp, a guided tour of the neighborhood of MesEa presenting the progress in the Arboretum and the results of their work.
