Arbeit

The participants will clear and tidy the environment and separate waste materials such as plastic, metal, textiles for future use or for recycling. One day volunteers will have a workshop on how to make art from recycled materials. The topic of Energy transition will be shared and discussed and there will be some interesting visits to local energy sources such as fuel peat producers who are changing their activities from fuel peat to more sustainable options.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

Simple shared accommodation in a cottage by a small clear lake within a walking distance from Alpo Savannah. The volunteers need to bring their own sleeping bag. The cottage has a sauna and a good beach for swimming. Drinking water needs to be brought from Alpo Savannah, while the washing water will be carried from the lake. There is a compost toilet on the premises and washing facilities in the sauna. All meals will be plant based and cooked together by the volunteers.

Lage und Freizeit

The Alpo savannah is located in a rural setting in the village of Nummijarvi far from shopping centers and city life, but with great surrounding nature. Finnish idyll at its best. The volunteers will be staying in the middle of the forest where the silence and peace are tangible and the mushrooms and berries are within reach. The host will provide bikes for the volunteers to move around during the camp. You will have a chance to visit nearby national parks and a local festival. The nearest town Kauhajoki is 30 kilometers away and all the important services can be found there.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

The local host is an innovative association that maintains the Alpo savannah, a sculpture park created by DIY artist Alpo Koivumaki. They repair, restore and preserve the sculptures he made from waste materials. They want the sculptures to be admired by visitors in the future as well.This camp is a part of the project European Youth in Action: policymakers for climate justice, supported by the CERV programme, improving competences in concrete actions for climate justice. The horizontal theme of this camp is energy transition.
