About the project
Unesco Project Fortress of Suomenlinna / Old Rauma
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Supporting the landscape maintenance of both sites and their vulnerability will be at the core of the project, alongside with the promotion of the World Heritage site by means of visitor tours and social media campaigns. Both sites see voluntary participation as a chance to include everyone in the ongoing process of preserving, enjoying and experiencing cultural heritage worldwide.
💼 What the programme involves
The volunteers will participate in landscape maintenance works, including digging, winkling, mowing, seed collecting, erosion repairing, and removing harmful or threatening vegetation at both sites to preserve their environment. In Suomenlinna, volunteers will be introduced to renovating parts of the fortress construction and in Old Rauma, volunteers will have the opportunity to do maintenance work for parts of the protected buildings. Alongside this work, the volunteers will be introduced to visitor management in both sites and will have a possibility to participate in social media campaigns.
