About the project

ESC: SJ/ESC47 BUILDING AN INTERNATIONAL AND GREEN VILLAGE

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

For 10 years, Vir'Volt has been located right in the middle of nature, near a regional park. Vir'Volt also aims to become fully ecofriendly and sustainable which is reflected in our campsite; yurts and tepees as rooms, permaculture farming and gardening, water saving projects, reducing, and reusing waste. This small village will become a great one without sacrificing or damaging the surrounding environment whilst always searching for better and more ecofriendly ways of living. During this workcamp, you will be in various work projects on-site as well as in the local town alongside local and international volunteers. You will help in the installation of two new yurts, by making furniture! (simple woodworking). You will also help in the refurbishment of the interior walls of the former swimming pool of La Ferté-Alais (painting and simple masonry). Inside the campsite, we are creating small areas with many purposes: reading, talking, relaxing, planting flowers…

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will sleep in collective tents (yurts, tepees) on the campsite of the association. Please bring a sleeping bag with you. The campsite has separate bathrooms and showers, as well as a kitchen place. Food will be provided and cooked by the volunteers in turns.

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).
