THINK GLOBALLY, ACT LOCALLY, JAZAK

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Environment Engineering Group organises this workcamp for the third time in the Jazak village on the Fruska Gora Mountain with the goal to support the development of a local NGO named 'Centre for rural development and applied learning' in Jazak, as well as to help promote the village Jazak through innovative ideas of the international volunteers. We believe international workcamp volunteers could motivate the local community, especially young people, to get involved in the social life of the village, giving their contribution to its development.

💼 What the programme involves

Volunteers will be clearing the vegetation, constructing and renovating the Centre and creating various types of activities (depending on the volunteers' interest and ideas) for creative animation of the local inhabitants within the Centre.

🏠 Accommodation on site

In the Centre there are 2 rooms with bathrooms, and there is one bungalow with bathroom as well. There is also common room for free time activities and WiFi. Volunteers will prepare meals on their own, with material provided, and with help of a local lady.

📍 About the location

Jazak is a small village in northern part of Serbia, on slopes of the Fruska Gora Mountain, a national park of extraordinary beauty, home to sixteen beautiful monasteries. Jazak is situated at 80 km from Belgrade, 25 km from Novi Sad, and 12 km from the closest town of Ruma. Together we will visit a nearby monastery 'Jazak', a swimming pool, and one day we will visit the city of Novi Sad.
