About the project
ESC: Moving to Nature - Volunteering team in the South of France
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
The camping overlooks the castles of Lastours, an exceptional group of four castle ruins atop a rocky outcrop.
We provide you peaceful and cosy accommodation keeping in mind the principles of eco-citizenship, so that everyone of us can participate in sustainable tourism by minimising the influence of the camping on the natural environment.
Especially for you, hiking amateurs, we have a variety of different walks and hikes, from the very relaxed to the sporty and most demanding ones. Everyone will be able to find something catered to his or her taste.
💼 What the programme involves
🏠 Accommodation on site
🍲 Food
Volunteers will prepare mainly vegetarian and low impact food and they will cook in teams, 1 day per week.
🎒 Leisure activities
There might be a week in camping lifestyle, so basically volunteers will sleep in individual or double tents. There will be days off to enjoy the area and let volunteers explore and travel around. The planning of activities will be shared before the project.
This project is mostly to have the help of volunteers for the last part of our moving, and the first steps into planting and putting the seeds (literally and metaphorically) in the new place. However, they will have the chance to receive/share different workshops about sustainability, climate change, low-impact kitchen, DIY, permaculture, gardening.... activities will be selected soon!!

ℹ️ Additional information
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).
