About the project

ESC: BioArt Village - Q3/Q4 2023

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

BioArt Village is located in the green heart of Eindhoven and is an off-grid WW2 bunker-complex with the looks of farmhouses. BioArt Village is a project on itself where we actively work on societal challenges or concepts that encompass sustainable development and practices of the human ecological habitat and climate. Within this framework, people have to approach systems from a symbiotic point of view where nature, arts, technology and innovation come together.

🏠 Accommodation on site

We provide basic accommodations that come with the off-grid character of the location. The place is situated close to the city-center and access to bikes is possible after a deposit. Volunteers get pocketmoney and food money, but cooking skills are required. Costs for travel, food and pocket money are provided up-to the funding budget according to the European Solidarity Corps.

🎒 Leisure activities

As our activities and projects are quite diverse, so would be the development of skills and competencies. As you work along with our projects, you can get into self-sustainable practices and concepts; learn how to take care of animals; approach projects and solutions with a DIY mentality and an hands-on approach; learn to apply gardening, renovation, woodworking and so on. Online Linguistic Support is also possible.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are looking for volunteers who have interest in the various subjects of the project such as sustainability, system changes for a circular economy and nature. Someone who loves to do practical work outside and inside; help with animal care, maintenance and gardening; assisting with rebuilding the village. The volunteer is eager to explore new possibilities with a go-getter mentality and proactive attitude, wanting to make a meaningful contribution to society. For Turkish applicants, be mindful of VISA application time (green passport is quickest).
Deadline: No application deadline

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).
