Inclusive Facilitators: Lead adapted art and expression workshops where people with disabilities are the true protagonists.
Social Bridge Builders: Create real bonds of friendship to break stigmas through daily life and solidarity.
The "Piña" Effect: Build a strong, supportive team of 15 volunteers (especially those with fewer opportunities).
Chroniclers: Document the project's magic to spread our impact beyond the forest.
🏠 Accommodation on site

Free days: A food allowance is provided to enjoy local restaurants and support the local economy.
Pocket Money:
