🏢 About the local organisation
A collective and intercultural adventure in Alsace! Do you want to be part of it?
On the agenda : a workcamp useful to the rural community, technical apprenticeships, exchanges from local to global, co-prepared meals, the discovery of the Alsacian Vosges... And all that you will build together !
The inhabitants of Fouday are hosting an international workcamp for the first time and are eager to live this rich experience of sharing ! This workcamp lasts three weeks because that's what you need to carry out your experience fully : the time to get to know each other, to dream and to achieve our utopia together !
You will take part in the first workcamp to redevelop a convivial area around the Maison du Temps Libre, where concerts and events take place. Eventually, it will be a pleasant and useful meeting space for inhabitants of all ages. Your actions will be in accordance with the objectives 4, 5, 11, 12, 16 and 17 of sustainable development (UN) in favor of quality education, gender equality, sustainable cities and communities, responsible consumption and production, peace, justice and effective institutions and partnerships for achieving the goals.
💼 What the programme involves
Supported in the technical training by a motivated team of local volunteers, you will learn to rebuild a retaining wall, create barriers, tables, wooden benches... It will be mainly carpentry and masonry work.
At the same time, taking advantage of the intercultural dynamics, you will organise and co-animate awareness-raising activities on international solidarity and the fight against discrimination, aimed at young people.
No particular qualification is expected, only the desire to do something together! How many hours of work per day ?
