About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The International Emergency Action Association is organizing this project every year in mines of Fournel Silver southeast of France. The work is hard, but the atmosphere is guaranteed!

💼 What the programme involves

Underground: stabilize sediments to prevent any risk of unclogging during a flood. To this end, a solid stone wall will be built at 1 or 2 m of alluvial deposits and the remaining space filled with mine spoils. Outdoors: purge the stones that have accumulated behind the safety nets. Small works of masonry to stabilize the ruined walls and construct traffic areas.
