📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Infopack with application form here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wqnfTI1GugI0dDpmSqXzDNZ5nfv7U67M/view Let's Slow Down Camp is designed to completely re-energise your mind, body and spirit. Our retreat offers a peaceful and safe environment where you can disconnect from the chaos of everyday life and reconnect with nature and yourself. Forget the mess for a second and soak in the calm of the present moment. The event is planned for 20 participants who will be selected primarily based on their motivation. Together we will experience 14 unforgettable days full of meaningful work for nature in the region of Wallachia. During Let´s Slow Down Camp we will focus mainly on the area of psychohygiene but surely we will also play and make lifetime memories. We have prepared stress relief activities (silence therapy, art therapy, movement activities and exercises), trips and excursions in the region. You can also look forward to meaningful conversations and networking.

🏠 Accommodation on site

We will be staying in the Kosénka Eco-centre in Valašské Klobouky. The accommodation is fully equipped: shared sleeping area with mattresses (sleeping bag a necessity), meeting room, separate cosy wooden cabin with amazing stove, two separate toilets, one shower and small kitchen. For the adventure minded participants, there is a barn in the complex or a garden where you can set up your tent. The menu will be vegan. (But if you like to have a sip of milk, the shop is 3 minutes away) We will reimburse your travel up to your budget based on the distance band - Green Travel Mandatory

🎒 Leisure activities

Working in the local protected area, approximately 10 days, 5-6 hours/day What can be better than taking care of something so prescious like “baby trees”? Work will cover various maintenance and conservation work in the nearby forest nursery and meadows . We sure will take care of the Kosénka eco-centre building and premises as well so the eco-centre can continue with their good work in the future.

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).
