About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The project stems from the concern to revalue a property confiscated to Ndrangheta, exactly to Mannolo’s family, convicted for international drug smuggling. For ten year the building was closed and rejected by multiple agencies including the Church, until 2007 when it was requested and obtained from Crotone WWF volunteers for 10 years with a concession interest-only loan. The building now is a CELA (center of legal and environmental education) and became the symbol of the fight against organized crime in the province of Crotone.

💼 What the programme involves

• Small maintenance work for the hosting building CELA Center. • Cleaning and managing activities in the recovery center for turtles. Volunteers will help local guards to take care and release caretta caretta turtles. • Cleaning work in the Sovereto’s beaches with the presence of local plants in extinction. • Cleaning work and picking up of agricoltural products in the grounds in the province of Crotone confiscated to the local mafia. Throughout the work the volunteers will be followed and taught by volunteers of WWF of Crotone. The work will take the first half of the day . For the second half , the camp leaders will involve volunteers in training activities , realised with non formal education methods , to elaborate on main issues ofv the camp : defense of legality and organised crime fight , environment protection . In the free time volunteers could go on the beach by foot (200 m).
