About the project

ESC: SJ/ESC47 - Stone by stone

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

North of the plateau of the thousand ponds, the inhabitants of a village prized as a „town of character“ are waiting with enthusiasm to welcome their second international workcamp. This project corresponds with the goal „sustainable cities and communities“ established by the UN. This includes discovering new and different ways of thinking and acting, sharing skills, investing oneself to develop an area and taking part in the collective life: there will be many possibilities to promote solidarity! Each workcamp offers unique experiences, so come to Faucogney-et-la-merand make your own! Here are, on the banks of the river, two old washing-places, one of which was restored a few decades ago. The town would like to improve this area for passing hikers, by making this a sheltered place of rest or restoration. Your work will consist of constructing stone paving,approximately 6hrs per day. You will learn techniques of traditional stonework. You will envolve as a team.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be housed in a big communal building reserved for your group. One room will serve as the collective sleeping space withcamp beds, in gender diversity. Please bring your pillow and sleeping bag ! The place is equipped with a kitchen. Accompanied by the camp leaders, you will make the menu and prepare the meals each day (vegetarian or vegan if asked). You will be able to take showers at the houses of locals, or at the gymnasium of the town. To wash your laundry you will also rely on the villagers.

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).
