📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
IBG is a workcamp organisation located in Stuttgart. Our organisation has been founded in 1965 with the goal of fostering peace and understanding among people. Every year we organise international volunteering projects in southern and western Germany. We also organise seminars and trainings for volunteers and camp leaders.
💼 What the programme involves
"Let's take action for climate protection - get active for forests and peatlands!" is a special focus of IBG in 2022. Therefore, we organise many projects in the field of nature protection this year and we would be happy to welcome you as a foreign leader in these projects. We are sure that this will be an additional enrichment!
**
The project will consist of different parts: first participating to a training for group leaders and then becoming a co-leader in two different IBG-camps.
**
Part 1: from June 14th to June 18th you will join our training "Group Leading in Environmental Projects". This training for camp leaders will deal with the question: How do I manage a group? You will gain inputs and reflect about group processes, the dealing with conflicts and their individual leadership style. This year we are adding a special focus on themes relating to environmental protection.
**
Right after the end of the training, you will join your first workcamp as a leader: IBG 05 "Nature Kindergarten Höchstädt" (from June 18th to July 5th). You will then have a few days to relax for yourself. The last part of this project starts on July 8th with the workcamp IBG 07 "Celtic House Bopfingen".
