About the project

EMBELLISH THE COURTYARD OF BULLION’S VILLAGE

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Bullion is a village of 1,850 inhabitants located in the High Valley of Chevreuse natural regional park with a strong local identity and a harmonious social life. The environment and the social life is deeply important for the municipality, that is why they reached out to Concordia to create an impactful workcamp, to both inhabitants and manufacturers.

💼 What the programme involves

Take part in embellishing the media library\'s courtyard of Bullion, a charming village located in the High Valley of Chevreuse natural regional park. Bullion inhabitants frequently visit the media library, which makes it an important place for them. As part of this first project organised in this dynamic village, you will be landscaping the library's courtyard: the work will involve creating furniture from recycled materials and vegetating the main wall to make the courtyard a lively, friendly place. You will also get the chance to take civic and creative walks in Rambouillet forest.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be sleeping in 2 mixed shared rooms in the local gym with access to showers and toilets. Please note to bring your own sleeping bag. You will dispose of a municipal hall to gather and live together, which will be located right next to the courtyard and to your accommodation. You will share all the collective tasks and will cook together. The facilitators will be allocated with a budget for the food: you will be participating in grocery shopping and in cooking. We will encourage the purchase of healthy, local products. You will find a basketball court and ping-pong tables next to your accommodation where you will be able to relax in your free time.

📍 About the location

Bullion is located in the Yvelines department, 50km away from Paris. It is full of natural resources and only 30 minutes away from the Rambouillet forest. There are plenty of walking and biking trails for you to enjoy the natural, regional treasures.
