About the project

ESC: MOUNTAIN FUTURESCAPE: Youth Cooperation and Cultural Enhancement

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Get ready to contribute to the Stone Oven House project by carrying out various tasks. You will learn and practice the maintenance of cultural heritage, as rebuilding dry stone walls and cleaning the woods. You will work closely with artists, studying and practicing the re-functionalization of interior spaces through the sustainable use of resources and materials and the regeneration of exterior spaces. You will contribute to artistic initiatives aimed at positive social change and at the same time learn the importance of caring for the land and nature and the actions this requires. Furthermore, and not least, you will contribute to communicating the social change generated by these collective actions. Of course you will also have to participate in the community life keeping the residence clean. Cooking together and sharing the table will be moments of happy conviviality, savouring delicious food and chatting with interesting people.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers are asked to pay their own travel tickets. They will be reimbursed at the end of the service upon the delivery of all the original tickets and boarding passes of their trip. The travel reimbursement is calculated upon the travel distance and the Country the volunteer is coming from, based on flat rates established by the European Commission. Food and accommodation will be provided by the host organization. Each volunteer will have a shared room, with a shared bathroom in a traditional farm house. He/She will be provided three meals a day, wi-fi connection, sheets and towels.

🎒 Leisure activities

The project will offer several training moments in order to prepare and support the participating volunteers. The involved organization will support the participants before departure providing all the necessary information to organize the trip and clarify any possible doubt about the project. Then, during the mobility, they will provide an on-arrival and a final evaluation moments in group, and the possibility to get individual support during the project activities. Volunteers will also have a daily reflection space where they can evaluate the daily activities and confront themselves.

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).
