🏢 About the local organisation
Le Centre de Beaumotte hosts people from all over the world and a large variety of backgrounds, including international volunteers, who spend an entire year living and working at the center. As a collective experience, this project offers time and space for an intercultural exchange and sharing of ideas. In the spirit of the «responsible consumption and production» goals set by the UN, this work camp will be about group construction work, and will encourage new ways of living and thinking. Here, in the French countryside, you will be able to share an enriching daily life with young people from all around the world.
