The participants will have the opportunity to choose between working with children from the age of 3 - 15.

Furthermore, we are ready to answer any questions that you might have, and we will keep all our volunteers updated right up until the start of the Work Camp. As of March 2021, there is a few important things to mention: - it is free for foreigners to take a COVID-19 test upon arrival in Denmark - with the current vaccine plan, most Danes will be vaccinated at the end of June 2021 Your Work Camp host will have guidelines on how to handle COVID-19 during your stay, including how to handle isolation and enforcement of government guidelines.
