🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be staying in a tent. Communal spaces include a roofed hangout space, a pergola outside hangout space, a kitchen, compost toilets and a lot of gardens and food forests. The venture runs on solar panels, therefore, electricity is limited and on rainy days with strong consumption of electricity, we can run out of electric power. There is no possibility of using hair dryers and washing of clothes can only be done the traditional way. We opt for vegetarian and seasonal diet. Your travel costs will be reimburshed according to the distance beteween your home and Liveloula.

🎒 Leisure activities

We will be focusing on the essential aspects of a healthy community through various reflection, movement, and nature-based activities. On a daily basis there will be chance to put in practice team building, cooperation and communication skills. When it comes to hands-on skills we will have a rotating weekly plan so everyone can experience various activities and focus on the ones they want to learn the most.

⚠️ Requirements

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).
