📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
ReGreen will bring together 12 young people for a 24-day educational, practical, and social adventure in the Suderbyn Permaculture Ecovillage. Suderbyn is home to an international community of people who care about the environment, and who apply permaculture principles and voluntary simplicity in their everyday lives.
The working days will include both theory and practice, enabling the volunteers to directly apply everything that has been learnt at a conceptual level. This means that we hope to provide you with skills and competencies that you can carry with you after your journey with us has ended.
ONLY APPLICATIONS THROUGH OUR APPLICATION FORM ARE CONSIDERED!

🏠 Accommodation on site
The project is framed as a camping experience: the volunteers are collectively accommodated in tents with project coordinators and use compost toilets. Through this extended camping experience, the project aims to develop a sense of awareness of the elements that surround us and cultivate a sense of gratitude for the energy-intensive infrastructure modern society provides us with.
🎒 Leisure activities
The project will weave together 3 themes over the course of 3 weeks:
Creating sustainable living spaces through activities organised by the infrastructure/building domain of Suderbyn.
Applied permaculture design through activities organised by the garden domain of Suderbyn.
Personal and group development with activities organised by the social domain and the community’s NGO RELEARN.
⚠️ Requirements
The Participant profil: The main criterion selection is the personal motivation of candidates to engage in sustainable lifestyle and community living. It’s important to demonstrate a basic understanding of actual living conditions in Suderbyn. Those who show curiosity and enthusiasm towards the areas mentioned above are more likely to be selected. The project setting ultimately involves a rural lifestyle and might not be suitable for those who prefer urban activities.
