💼 What the programme involves
The south-east Brandenburg branch of the „Sozalpädagogisches Institut“ (Social Pedagogy Institute) foundation maintains the “Bergschlösschen”, a centre for people from several generations in the town of Spremberg, as well as other lodging property in the Felixsee community (around 15km from Spremberg), in an idyllic rural setting directly next to the pristine Felixsee lake. For this year, the plan is for you and your team to support the Felixsee community with the maintenance and preservation of their local parks. We would also like you to help out with the deconstruction work in the property. You can still be creative and artistic outside, however, by creating unique household objects, for example. Besides this, there will be opportunities in Spremberg to get to know about and to assist with intercultural work with families and individuals with migrant backgrounds or who have fled from other countries. During the workcamp you have the opportunity to get to know the local landscape and community, as well as to take part in local events. Our international workcamp is taking place for the 16th time this year.
