About the project

ESC: Greening the present, Saving the future - Geraci Siculo [2]

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Volunteers will be involved in cleaning and maintenance of public areas, urban path to the castle ruins area and urban park path. Volunteers will work alongside local workers of the public administration responsible for green area. In the afternoon, volunteers will work together to create an event/campaign to raise awareness about recycling and reduction of plastic consumption and decomposition time within the local community. This activity will support the ongoing initiative “plastic free” launched by the Environment Ministry and already joined by the municipalities.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accommodation will be in a school located in the town. Volunteers will sleep in the gym on air-camping mats provided. Volunteers have to bring their own sleeping bag. The school is equipped with a kitchen that volunteers will use to prepare meals by themselves in group; food to be cooked will be provided by the host organisation. Bathrooms with hot water showers are available inside the school. No Internet in the building.
