About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

VardE is a small town in the very northeast of Norway. It has app. 2000 inhabitants. It is the oldest town of northern Norway, situated on an island in the Barents sea. The distance from Oslo to VardE is about 2000 kilometres, so you need to estimate some extra costs for travelling there. VardE has lots of history to offer visitors, amongst others memorials from World War 2, the northmost fortress of Europe and a monument in memorial of execution of women considered witches. Another aspect of VardE is its nature, with various kinds of birds nesting and good opportunities for hiking.VardEhus Museumsforening is a voluntary organisation in VardE. One of its present projects is refurbishing the old building of VardE Museum, called Lushaugen, and old bunkers from World War 2 at Kibergneset.

💼 What the programme involves

The work will be done in two different places. One part will include some manual outdoor work in the surroundings of the old building of VardE Museum, Lushaugen, mostly cutting grass etc. The second part of the work will be near Kiberg, 13 km from VardE.
