🎒 Leisure activities

The project title is inspired by a tillandsia, a unique air plant that doesn’t need soil to live, but instead draws nutrients and moisture from the air. Its resilience and capacity to thrive in challenging conditions symbolize the essence of this project and remind us that we can find creative ways to transform challenges into opportunities. The Tillandsia project is a 3-year initiative that aims to empower young people to become active agents of environmental and social transformation and tackle challenges like environmental degradation, youth isolation, and lack of access to sustainability education.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Join our first Tillandsia volunteering team in Greece and live for a month at Hopeland, an educational eco-community in southern Greece. Be part of a group of 14 volunteers from across Europe and experience Hopeland, guided and supported by the crew. Roll up your sleeves, unleash your creativity, and dive into hands-on work to enhance the space, improve sustainability practices, and contribute to the growth of the project. Experience living and working together in a communal setting, embracing the challenges and opportunities that come with it. All while picking up new skills, making meaningful connections, and finding joy along the way!

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).
What do we provide ?
