SUMMARY: Join an international group to work actively on regenerating the territory, side by side with the local community. #solidarity #CommunitySpirit #interculturalism #lunarcamp #100YearsOfWorkcamps PARTNER: Outside The Box is an ONG born in 2015 working on regeneration of the spaces, organization, and realization of cultural events, laboratory and creative workshops, European projects to promote social tourism, art and culture, active citizenship, volunteering, and the international mobility through the European program Erasmus Plus, non formal education methodology, and activities on local dimension. PROJECT: We decided to organize this work camp on occasion of Borgo Vagare (festival of traditional cuisine), the patronal feast of San Lupo and the Cantico Grecanico Salentino (concert), to combine two fundamental elements for everyone's personal growth: the solidarity and the intercultural experience, with the aim of helping the community, which is experiencing progressive depopulation, to regenerate and reactivate. In addition to allowing volunteers to get to know each other, to learn by doing, to overcome prejudices and live together peacefully, to solve conflicts with dialogue and mutual understanding, the purpose of the work camp is to offer a valuable contribution to the local community, helping it to grow and move forward. Through the meeting between local and international volunteers, the project aims to revitalize the territory. By joining this workcamp you will contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals: SustainableCommunities-SDG11.
