Arbeit

The main goal is to promote the hidden history, nature, and culture of the islands from an international perspective.

As part of the program, youth from 15 countries will engage in cultural exchange activities with local teenagers. Participants will introduce their countries through food, games, art, clothing, photography, and more. These sessions will help local youth expand their global understanding.

In addition, participants will carry out community service by delivering lunch boxes to elderly residents living alone and supporting them with basic home maintenance tasks. These visits offer opportunities to listen to their life stories, share values, and even exchange meals with flavors from around the world.

Environmental activities are also a key part of the program. Participants will join a plogging (trash-picking while walking) activity along the island's coasts and in the tidal flats. They will also take part in experiential learning sessions to explore and understand the ecological significance of the tidal flats, which are designated as UNESCO World Natural Heritage.

Participants will compete in a creative island promotion SNS challenge, using storytelling and social media content to share the charm and global significance of the islands with the world. Through these experiences, participants will immerse themselves in authentic island life, engage in meaningful cultural exchanges, and contribute to sustainable community development.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

In the local guest house / Meals are provided & Cooked by participants. The accommodation provides air conditioning, bedding, and shower facilities. Each room will be shared by 4 to 5 people.

Did you know that there are about 3,000 islands in Korea? These islands are filled with various stories. For instance, it was an island where foreigners first visited Korea, and one of the presidents received the Nobel Peace Prize in Korea. Many people have considered islands as isolated places because they are separated from the mainland and historically seen as remote destinations. However, from a different point of view, we can consider islands as the first gateways in Korean history to accept foreign and diverse cultures. They were such open-minded places to embrace diverse cultures and values.
Here, we can discover the cultural heritage from a global-local perspective. From islands where foreign cultures were first embraced, we aim to promote global values and cultural heritage, and introduce the values brought by international volunteers to the island residents. Join us for a meaningful adventure!

In addition to these creative activities, participants will have time to enjoy Geomun Island’s stunning beaches and beautiful ocean.

Geomun Island is a beautiful island located about 1 hour and 30 minutes by high-speed ferry from Yeosu, which is known for having one of the most picturesque harbors in South Korea. While it may seem like a remote island from the mainland, from the perspective of the sea, it holds a strategic position as a gateway to Korea. Because of this, Geomun Island has historical significance—most notably, it was occupied by British forces from 1885 to 1887.

Despite being separated from the mainland, the island has developed its own unique culture over time. Today, it is home to about 300 residents who enjoy a peaceful and happy life. Volunteers come to this island to contribute to the well-being of the community and help enhance the happiness of its residents even further.
