Arbeit

The workcamp will focus on restoring the mountain hut and its surroundings, while also supporting the organization of an annual May 1st music festival. Participants will engage in hands-on tasks, contributing to both the upkeep of the space and the logistics of a public event. The first part of the camp will involve a variety of maintenance activities, from artistic and painting projects to wood collection and manual work, allowing room for creativity and responding to the immediate needs of the site. The second part will focus on festival preparation, with participants helping in logistics, cooking, setting up the space, and organizing workshops. Volunteers will work for 7 hours a day, with two rest days during the project.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

Rifugio Cognolo is a charming mountain hut featuring three main areas: a fully equipped kitchen, a multipurpose room, and a covered patio. The hut is off the grid, with electricity provided by solar panels, and does not have Wi-Fi. Facilities include two bathrooms, one of which is an outdoor dry toilet, and solar-heated showers. The indoor spaces will be primarily used by staff for cooking and as shelter in case of rain, while volunteers will sleep in tents in the camping area surrounding the hut. Please note that, considering the season, it is essential to bring appropriate equipment, such as a thermal sleeping bag, to stay comfortable during colder nights. Volunteers will take an active role in managing the space, including cleaning and meal preparation, through organized cooking and cleaning shifts. They will have access to a pantry and will plan and prepare weekly menus, taking into account allergies, dietary preferences, and nutritional needs.

Lage und Freizeit

Rifugio Cognolo sits at 1000m above sea level in the Sabine Mountains, near the village of Casperia. It is reachable by a moderately challenging 2.5 hour hike, offering volunteers the chance to fully immerse themselves in a setting far removed from everyday life, surrounded by beech forests and breathtaking mountain views.The camp is located in Bassa Sabina, about an hour away from Rome, a rural region defined by the striking contrast between rugged mountain ranges, gentle rolling hills, and the fertile plains of the Tiber River valley with olive groves, vineyards, and small hillside villages dotting the landscape.
Due to the relative isolation of the mountain hut, visits to Rome or other nearby towns will not be possible during the workcamp.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

The camp is made in collaboration with the association ALA. Since 2009, ALA association has been working to develop the rural area where it is based, revitalizing the spaces it occupies. Over the years, it has transformed abandoned structures into vibrant community hubs, welcoming both locals and international youth, who have been an integral part of the renovation process. The mountains play a central role in the community, serving for years as a space of active work aimed at making them more accessible through trail cleaning and marking. Through non-formal education and a learning by doing approach, the association offers a place to explore and challenge ourselves, discover our limits, and celebrate our strengths.

Anforderungen

The camp takes place at 1000m, it is accessible by hiking and takes volunteers to immerse themselves in a dimension outside the usual. It requires a high sense of adaptation, the ability to disconnect from digital devices and an internet connection, desire to disconnect from everyday life to connect with a life more in relationship with the people one has around and nature. Be ready to become part of a local small community. Be open minded.
Please note that, considering the season, it is essential to bring appropriate equipment, such as a thermal sleeping bag, to stay comfortable during colder nights.
This project is supported by the European Solidarity Corps. Food and accommodation are covered by the European Union. Transportation costs will be refunded according to the distance band rules of the programme. No fees are required. The workcamps are open for volunteers coming from ESC programme countries.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

The Emmaus Community of Villafranca is part of the global Emmaus Movement, which aims to combat poverty and social exclusion through the principles of work, sharing, and mutual aid. The Emmaus Community of Villafranca di Verona was founded in 1985, following a work camp organised in Villafranca in which young Italians and Europeans took part. Due to the success of the camp, the Municipality made available a former school. From the beginning, a group of friends was formed around the community, with whom Emmaus organised (and still organises) moments of deepening on the themes of solidarity, peace, non-violence... The role of this group of friends has been fundamental in the life of the Community and in making Emmaus known and appreciated in Villafranca. And if today so many people understand and support our community, it is thanks to the work and presence of these friends. The main objective of Emmaus is the reception of people in need, carrying out activities such as the collection, reuse and recycling of used materials with display at the Solidarity Flea Market. Zero Mileage Garden: organic vegetable growing. Care and maintenance of the community s green spaces. Spending the day (activities and free time) with the people hosted on the site.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

The social cooperatives I Locandieri were born from the idea of cooperation between individuals and institutions, with the mission of generating social and economic value for the benefit of as many people as possible. They offer services to people, especially migrants, and since 2008 they have been welcoming migrants in two communities, including minors and families. One of their missions is to give new life to the confiscated property. Over the years they have given back to the community places confiscated from crime, transforming them into communities for migrants and sports facilities for children, young people and migrants living in Castelvetrano.Il Giardino delle Arance is another confiscated property that has been returned to the community: a small building from the late 18th century with three hectares of land that has been renovated to become a home for minors; a cottage that will become a space-lab for the processing of home-grown agri-food products and a shop to sell the garden s produce. Outside, there are 2 hectares of citrus groves and 1 hectare of land where an intensive organic vegetable garden has been created to implement an ambitious socio-economic project.

Arbeit

During the festival, the place is going to host hundreds of artists and thousands of spectators, so the international volunteers will be asked to join the local volunteers to manage the entire organisation of the event. An average of 6 to 7 hours per day is required, with working shifts organized on the event nights.
The volunteers' work is mainly going to involve: Logistic set up and support; Pub and restaurant tending during the festival; General cleaning during the evenings.
After the event, the volunteers will help take down the structures and clean the fortress. The work can be physically hard (and it will be very hot), but the environment will be funny and easy going. The motto is “Share, Work and Have Fun”. In a few words, volunteers should get ready to be active and to give their energy to the community working at the Forte Prenestino.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

Please, take good note that the accommodation is really basic.
The volunteers are going to sleep inside Forte Prenestino in a shared dormitory, yet they will have to bring a sleeping bag. Hand in hand with your team-mates, you will have to clean and to prepare the dorm at your arrival. During the festival, volunteers can possibly be asked to sleep a few nights in tents.
Volunteers will have access to a private chemical portable toilet (those used in festival settings) for the entire duration of the workcamp. Showers are collective open air showers, so don’t forget your swimsuit!
Regarding the meals, the volunteers will have access to a private kitchen in their dormitory for breakfast and some of the meals. Most of the meal will be served in the Forte Prenestino restaurant, where volunteers will support the cooks during the festival days. Most of the meals will have vegan options.

Lage und Freizeit

The camp takes place in Rome. The city is surrounded by sixteen military fortresses built during the second half of the 19th century to set up a defensive system. All these fortresses were partially used and then abandoned during the 20th century. Forte Prenestino is located in one of these fortresses, in a big working-class neighbourhood called Centocelle.
The 1st of may 1986 a mixed group of people, under the pressure of necessity decided to squat Forte Prenestino. Since, there was no cinema, place to make music or to meet each other, they made of this Fortress the perfect spot to exchange and to learn with and from each other.For the last 25 years, full of work, fun and political struggles, the center has become a place of cultural production, autonomously managed and economically independent. Every 1st of may, a huge festival celebrates the creation of Forte Prenestino.
Forte Prenestino organizes concerts and events like Crack!, as well as providing different services for the community such as a restaurant, two pubs, a tea room, a recording studio, a popular gym, and a theater.
During the workcamp there won’t be much free time to visit the city of Rome, for instance we suggest you to arrive or depart a few days before or after the camp.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

The camp is organised by Lunaria in collaboration with Forte Prenestino. CSOA Forte Prenestino is an occupied and self-managed social centre that has existed since 1986. Reclaimed from abandonment, it is a space for meeting, socialising, creativity and collective organisation, lived without institutional authorisation or political control. The Forte is self-managed through horizontal assemblies and the free association of people who share a common project and ethics. It experiments with alternative ways of living, organising work, time and decision-making, valuing equality, diversity and collective responsibility. Open to anyone who shares its values, the Forte is entirely self-financed through accessible contributions from cultural and musical initiatives, which support its daily activities, campaigns and mobilisations.
As part of a wider struggle for a different society, Forte Prenestino practices another form of sociality and economy. It is openly anti-fascist, anti-sexist, anti-racist and anti-prohibitionist, and remains a deliberately challenging space.
