About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Evolving Cycles is a Greek NGO, serving ecotopias, eco-conscious projects based on Permaculture and Sociocracy. Komposotpia is a caravan eco-artistic project based in Korinth, Greece searching for 2 international volunteers for 6 months. Through our activities and courses we are essentially inspiring leaders to become fluent in communication, collaboration and earth regeneration based on the Social Permaculture principles. These are the Eco-Artivists: they live life as an art and for the earth do their part! Our vision is a world full of prosperous & collaborative communities where we are living in harmony with nature and we are free to do what we love. Our mission is to boost our ecology and our psychology through the arts, regenrative practices and Community Building Experiences!

🏠 Accommodation on site

Roundtrip travel costs are covered up to max amount. Food and accommodation are in a community setting sharing life with other volunteers and the project coordinators. We prepare seasonal, organic, vegetarian food. We eat what the land produces and we buy/exchange 99% organic food to cover the rest of our needs. In summer, a bell tent or a caravan is shared among the volunteers. In colder months, you will be sharing an apartment or room in a nearby rental house. At all times you will have access to running water, electricity, bathrooms, dry toilets, gardens, kitchen and common areas.

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).
