FSL -Indiae "s Youth Training Center in Kundapur
💼 What the programme involves
Since 2003, FSL-India has been conducting work camps and placing LTVe "s in Kundapur region (Karnataka state). FSL-India has been involved in developing projects for many years in this region and has now formed a very strong network of local partners and local volunteers. Invariably this is one of the prime locations for FSL-India to initiate development interventions in partnership with the local NGOs and civil society organisations.
FSL-India is planning to construct a Youth Training Centre in Kundapur. The Youth Training Centre will have an eco-friendly concept using locally available materials and will include model farming, rain water harvesting, bio gas, compost pits and optimum utilisation of energy and water resources. We will also be planting native species of plants over 6 acres of farm land.
This project is open to a maximum of 5 LTVs at a time. Some of the activities include:
a)- Supervising the construction work and ensuring quality of construction
b)- Planning and implementing the construction work
c)- Researching and recommending eco-friendly concepts that can be implemented like rain water harvesting, bio gas, model farming etc.
d)- Planting trees, landscaping and laying pathways
Applications for this type of project are open to all. However, preference will be given to volunteers who have a background in Architecture, Landscaping, Eco-friendly initiatives etc. The Info-sheet will have more information regarding the individual projects with schedules, and activities.
