ESC: Ecological Gardening and farming in Sierra Norte rural area
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Asociación Parkeri
(Spain) is a non profit and non governmental organization, which
develops projects in order to promote non formal and informal learning since 2014.
We work in different topics: Gender, Inclusion, Learning support, team work , youth social
entrepreneurship and since 2021 we moved to Serrada de la Fuente (Puentes Viejas), a little
village in Sierra Norte, in the region of Madrid.
Our work approach is connected to non
formal education, and we want to bring and
connect our work to the rural areas. We want to connect our experience in Youth Work with
the reality of the rural area we are living now and with the rural areas of your local
communities, with the work you are developing now. In this link you can see the video of
one of our training activities: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiWEF7Lbbqs&t=57s

ℹ️ Additional information
Parkeri NGO staff are experts on the European Solidarity Corps (trainers on the Programme since 2014), so constant support will be provided to the volunteers. Mandatory trainings, like On Arrival training and Mid Term Evaluation, will be developed according to the Spanish National Agency calendar. Learning support and mentorship will be provided and Youthpass will be given at the end of the volunteers' projects. We will also offer the volunteers to participate in trainings connected with non-violent communication, and other non-formal education trainings/activities.
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
- Health insurance during your project
- round-trip travel reimbursement
- accommodation and food
- pocket money
- language course
- Return Week-end
- Youth Pass and SVI international Volunteer passport
