About the project

ESC: Agua de beber - 2

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The activity consists of watering the seedlings to enable them to survive in drought conditions. This short-term activity takes place in shifts of 14 days in 4 groups (10-12-13-13 volunteers) 1. 4. - 17.6. 2.. 18.6 - 1.7. 3. 2.-15. 7. 4. 16. - 29.7. (When applying, state which shifts you prefer). We are a scout association of the city of Split and so far we have organized numerous afforestations. In addition to the largest afforestation campaign in the burned areas in Europe, Boranka, which planted over 110,000 seedlings, we organized the project Green, I love you green, in which volunteers planted nearly 11,000 seedlings through ESC. All these seedlings desperately need our help, because they are small and, until they grow so that they can maintain themselves, they need water. In this way, we contribute to climate and environmental recovery, as well as strengthening the resilience of our community to crises caused by global climate change.
