About the project

ESC: Renovating Walking Path

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Volunteers will contribute to mapping trails, maintaining fences and signs, and rejuvenating the natural environment. They will be involved in activities such as cleaning and tracing footpaths, particularly those along the historic Magna Via Francigena in Sicily. By keeping these paths clear and accessible, we promote outdoor recreation and appreciation of nature‘s wonders. Participants also work with local NGOs and take part in enriching intercultural events. Some tasks may be also implemented in the local space where the host organises cultural events.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accommodation. Volunteers will be hosted in apartment with shared rooms. The apartment is equipped with all needed and utilities (water, electricity). Wi-fi is available in the organisation office. Food: provided by the host organisation and cooked by volunteers. Volunteers will take care of the management of the space, preparing food and cleaning.

🎒 Leisure activities

On arrival training

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Volunteers should like the idea of living in a small town and being involved in an experience of collective life. They must be interested in manual work and creative construction and decoration. Larger cities are not easy to reach, so during their free time volunteers will have to organise excursions by public transport, adapting to the few possibilities available.
Deadline: Application deadline: 22/04/2024

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).
