📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

NOTE: Only participants who complete the application form in the infopack will be included in the selection process: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n_LxsOXvv79fvtsobsiSUBD-WPaM6clF/view?usp=sharing Come and join us on a camp where you will climb out of your shell to meet new people, try new things, and get busy as a bee helping to restore an old anabaptist residence. Don’t be an ostrich and sign up for the High as Giraffe Camp to look over the horizon! High as a Giraffe is a great opportunity to meet new people and better understand their origins. Together, we will experience 14 days full of adventures, volunteer work, new experiences, and, most importantly, new friendships. You also get a tremendous opportunity to learn more about local culture and traditions. The camp is designed to learn more about the cultures of other participants.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The camp will take place in Alinkov - an old anabaptist residence near a small village Čermákovice Czech Republic. We will be sleeping on-site - on the ground in the building (a mat and a sleeping bag are a necessity) or outside in tents (in that case, bring your own tent). We will all sleep in one shared room (the sleeping area is gender mixed). Cooking will be done mainly on fire or a portable stove. There will be a dry toilet only and no shower (hygiene will be done in buckets or the river). Mobile network is available only for calling and SMS.

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).

  • Health insurance during your project
  • round-trip travel reimbursement
