About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Concordia is a national non-profit organization which proposes different kinds of volunteering projects. One of our main volunteering projects are international workcamps. Groups of around 15 volunteers work and live together on projects lasting between one and three weeks. There are 3 types of workcamps, aimed at different publics: ESC team projects, projects for adults and projects for teenagers. These projects can cover a wide range of topics. This summer, the main workcamps will include restoring a church, building a wooden playground for children and creating a reproduction area for turtles in order to reintroduce them in the wild. This short-term volunteering project will revolve around this summer's international workcamps. The main mission will be to take part in the workcamps. The following missions are proposals and can evolve according to the wishes of the volunteers. They could be logistics, promoting the workcamps or leading activities on the workcamps, among others.

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).
