📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

We are an Eco-Community in Bavaria, founded in 2016. We took over a former vacation village in the beautiful natural area close to the Czech border, which used to be "the end of the world" from both sides for decades. Currently we are approx 40 adults +15 kids, several dogs and cats. We are trying to run a place where people develop together a field for living and working in connection with humans, animals and the environment. By our way of living we aim to contribute an important step towards a world, where all beings can live in peace, trust, freedom, joy and connectedness. In detail we envision and work on : vegan food and education in professional cooking partilly energy and water supply self-supply via permaculture welcoming culture and hospitality art & music common and individual development mutual support and solidarity Trust via transparency and honesty deep authentic partnerships and relationships non-violent communication gifteconomy peace work

💼 What the programme involves

In July 2023, Germany will host the European Ecovillage Gathering organised by the Global Ecovillage Network of Europe at Nature Community, Bavaria. 25 volunteers from all over Europe will arrive 5 weeks earlier through the European Solidarity Corps programme, to help with preparation of the Gathering, as well as to learn by doing things hands-on and gaining a rich experience in international event management and sustainable development. This is an exciting chance to immerse yourself in the world of ecovillages, by living and working in community and co-creating Europe’s biggest ecovillage event with a diverse international team. A mix of practical work and team-building create a great sense of achievement and bonds for life between the volunteers, many of whom go on to form lasting connections with the ecovillage movement.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: The ESC volunteers will be involved at the GEN Europe Gathering preparation, implementation and wrap-up. You will work in different work areas from marketing, sub-event creation, participant management to catering and site organisation tasks. The volunteers may have different tasks during the different phases of the Gathering. For instance, before the Gathering, one may be in the communications team but during the Gathering in the welcoming team supporting participant management.
Deadline: Application deadline: 05/06/2023

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).
What do we provide ?
  • Training before and after the project

  • round-trip travel reimbursement
  • accommodation and food
  • pocket money
  • language course
  • Return Week-end
