🏢 About the local organisation
The municipality of Listrac de Durèze asked Concordia to participate in the renovation of its heritage. The community would like to revitalize and reopen its public wash-house. An important goal of this project is to create bonds between the international volunteers and the local community.
💼 What the programme involves
Following a first session in July which worked on rebuilding the washhouse, a second session will take place in order to revitalize the place.
You will participate in giving the washhouse access to water again, in cleaning the retention basin and in construction of stairs to better access the site.
🏠 Accommodation on site
You will be accommodated in tents in pairs, boys and girls separately (bring your own sleeping bag). You will have access to cooking facilities. Volunteers will share the different collective tasks and prepare the meals together. The budget will be allocated to the group leaders; volunteers will participate in the grocery shopping and in the preparation of meals, using healthy and local products when possible.
