The short term project "Art & Nature Spring" is the perfect opportunity for people who care about the environment and enjoy working both in the Arts and Nature. Be a part of a team full of creative international young people.You will work with people from Poland and abroad, so you will broaden your knowledge about different cultures. Enjoy the beautiful colorful Autumn in the region of Białowieza Forest - last old-growth forest in Europe.

We will provide the volunteers all their costs: both way tickets, money for food and pocket money. We also provide accommodation - volunteers will live in a hostel created in a former train station building with other volunteers in shared rooms (2-3 volunteers in a room). This place is located in Hajnówka town in Podlasie, a unique region in eastern Poland with a rich history and traditions, surrounded by beautiful Białowieza forest.

Volunteers don’t need any prior experience in gardening, we will teach them all basics needed for work.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
