ESC: Urban farming and educational challenges

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Our new volunteers will get an opportunity to gain new experiences in the topics of urban eco gardening, food-growing, craftsmanship and innovative methods of education based on intuitive pedagogy. Besides that volunteers will have an opportunity to experience the workflow of a nonprofit organization that is governed in a non-hierarchical and network based structure. Two main areas of volunteers' work will be: a) Assisting the guide in forest kindergarten, preparing programmes and daily-routine to educate pre-elementary kids using non-formal methods. b) Assisting the main gardener of community farm in the center of Prague, vegetable growing and animal husbandry. Volunteers hosted by our organization should be interested in developing themselves and learning new approaches in one of the following fields: environment-friendly farming and craftsmanship, children education and communication. The target of our organization is to help volunteers to unlock their true potential.
