About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The Energy Transition Without Dependence on Gas, Oil, or Coal – (How) Is It Possible? The Center for Sustainable Development artefact is 100% self-sufficient in renewable energy. Located in Glücksburg on the Flensburg Fjord, near the Danish border, this non-profit organization runs a clay-architecture guesthouse and a climate park for tourists and visitors. They also host projects and seminars on global learning. To keep the buildings, climate park, and nature experience area in top shape, ongoing repairs and expansions are needed. Join other volunteers in maintaining and enhancing the park, ensuring it remains an inspiring place for visitors!

💼 What the programme involves

Join us in the construction of a straw bale house and help with maintenance and landscaping in the Climate Park for visitors. Get hands-on with building and renovation tasks like woodworking, painting, gardening, and upkeep such as mowing the meadow and weeding. A special highlight: On the first work camp weekend, a youth competition with a solar car race is planned – and you can be part of it! Join the project – it's fun!
