Arbeit

This natural park is a natural reserve that has two lines of volunteering, the first is focused on conservation and its activities are aimed at caring for and protecting the environment, and the second aims at education with children, an alternative school and learning community in the heart of the reserve. As a volunteer you can work in the line that you like the most, having the possibility of working in both lines if you wish. The activities carried out in volunteering are the following:

1. Accompany and assist investigations carried out in the reserve
2. Maintenance of different spots, such as the small lake “laguna”, forest nursery, organic gardens, trails and infrastructure
3. Environmental education
4. Waste and compost management
5. Support in reforestation-restoration work (planting days)
6. Accompany the local, learning community´s activities (accompany walks with the children, starting new projects, accompany learning processes, play...)
7. Language classes with the children (according to the language(s) the volunteer knows)
8. Suggest, develop and carry out new initiatives and projects
9. Other activities according to the skills and abilities of the volunteer and according to the needs of the natural park and community living there

Working with the children in the park requires a high level of commitment and empathy. We are not looking for teachers, we are looking for people who understand that children are responsible for their learning process, and who want to accompany them in their explorations and self-directed learning.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

The volunteer house is located in the heart of a nature park. It has 2 shared rooms with beds available for 4 people individually and one double bed for a couple. There is also a bathroom, an equipped kitchen, a small living room, terrace and washing machine. The house is not always fully occupied. It may happen that you are the only volunteer, depending on the time of year.

Each volunteer who stays for at least two months is assigned a monthly budget to buy food according to his/her diet; the amount is enough to buy basic food in the local market. The volunteers are responsible for cooking their own meals, this is a perfect space to share recipes and carry out a culinary cultural exchange. Vegetarian food is available.

The water heater depends on the availability of gas. On some occasions, hot showers might not be available, but in general there is hot water available. The volunteers’ house has limited Wi-Fi (because there is only satellite internet in this remote area). It may only be used for basic needs, such as communication (some calls, messages, mails) and information (research, press), but not for large downloads, videos, streaming (music or movies), video calls, etc.

Lage und Freizeit

This natural park is located in the middle of a cloudy forest in the mountains, therefore it can be cold and rainy, depending on the season of the year. Given its location, the reserve is close to Bogotá (40 min approx.), there you will find many places to enjoy the Colombian culture.
In case you do not want to leave the reserve, we have some activities that you can do in your free time such as:
1. Night walks for wildlife watching (weekends)
2. Trekking inside and outside the park (e.g. visiting other village on trails)
3. Extreme sport and wellness activities: zip line, arborism, tree climbing, music therapy (must be agreed in advance with the areas, the park does not cover the cost of this activity)
4. Horseback riding (must be agreed in advance with the areas, the park does not cover the cost of this activity)
5. Bonfires
6. Birdwatching

Arbeit

Come to Klingenberg to build bridges between humans and their natural environment. The community is looking forward to your creation of spaces that will allow them to spend time in different natural areas.

Be prepared for lots of manual work in the fresh air. The two main tasks involve:
• Constructing an observation shack for people who’d like to watch birds and other events in the forest
• Constructing a wooden bridge into a small lake

Additional small tasks may develop on-site. A special treat is that you're working on the grounds of the raptor station: a place for different bird species like owls, hawks, eagles, and falcons. You will very likely get to meet them personally!

Please be aware that ticks can be an issue after spending a lot of time outdoors. In our General Info Sheet you will find suggestions on how you can protect yourself against them. Consider to check whether a vaccination against the tick-borne disease TBE makes sense and is possible in your home country.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You stay in the club house Oskar's Waldhütte in the district of the town called Röllfeld. It is located at the edge of town surrounded by forests. There are mattress dormitories for up to 38 people, a kitchen, showers, and a lounge.
The entire group does grocery shopping, cooking, and cleaning together. Food will be bought with the camp budget. To minimize our carbon footprint on the planet, we encourage volunteers to reduce meat and try more environmentally friendly meals.

Lage und Freizeit

Klingenberg slowly developed already in the 2nd century!
The town is located on the Main River at the edge of the Spessart Nature Park in the Bavarian region of Lower Franconia. It is famous for its red wine, so you're sure to be invited to a glass or two The town has a castle and many medieval half-timbered houses. You'll have time to explore the beautiful region and take trips to nearby towns such as Würzburg, Aschaffenburg, and Miltenberg.

Arbeit

Dive into the heart of the Citrus association site in Laguépie, where you will take part in the construction of two wooden cabins on stilts that will later host other groups of young people like you, seeking educational and empowering holidays.

Supervised by a professional in carpentry and construction, you will learn how to design lightweight, removable housing. Step by step, while carefully following detailed plans, you will bring these two lovely little chalets to life. These construction mornings will allow you to gain knowledge in design and woodworking. In the association’s beautiful garden, you will also be able to express your gardening talents and take part in its maintenance and in harvesting seasonal fruits and vegetables ready to be cooked.

In turns and as a group, you will also be involved in organizing collective life, especially through the kitchen project, where you will prepare tasty seasonal meals for the whole group. This workcamp will be a great opportunity to meet young people from different countries, share daily life with international volunteers on site, exchange about your cultures, and enjoy convivial moments in a natural and peaceful setting.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You will stay on the CITRUS association site in shared single-sex tents for 8 to 12 people, with wooden floors and beds. You will have access to composting toilets and solar showers entirely built by previous young volunteers. A washing machine is available for reasonable and organized use. There is no Wi-Fi connection.

You will take part daily in cleaning the facilities and preparing meals. Food choices will be made collectively to ensure a balanced diet based on your tastes, dietary needs, and local seasonal products. Cooking is part of the project just like construction activities.

Lage und Freizeit

Location: Laguépie is located in the green and hilly Quercy-Rouergue region, near the Aveyron gorges, about 100 km northeast of Toulouse, between Albi and Villefranche-de-Rouergue.

Leisure: Afternoons will be dedicated to various leisure and regional discovery activities. You will be able to go hiking, canoeing, visit beautiful medieval villages or historic towns, and of course swim directly in Laguépie in the Viaur River. With the support of the supervision team, you will also be active in proposing activities and entertainment: debates about your favorite movie, local dance introductions from your region, discussions about current issues, karaoke nights, or international quizzes — your ideas are welcome! There will also be the famous international meal, open to everyone, where you will prepare typical dishes from your country or region — a great way to make others travel through food and exchange about intercultural experiences!

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

Who has never dreamed of building a cabin in the woods, a place to take shelter for a summer and live a few moments disconnected from daily life and closer to nature and its elements? This time, it will be you — and we’re waiting for you to make this beautiful project come true !

Arbeit

There are always plenty of jobs to do on the grounds. This summer, the volunteers will specifically set to work repairing, renovating, and painting the bandstand so that people can come together here for culture and connection. The work therefore consists mainly of technical tasks. The necessary materials are provided by the host. In addition, other jobs may be on the schedule.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You will stay on the grounds of the eco-village, and meals are provided by the host together with the volunteers. Please be sure to let us know if you have any special dietary requirements. Individual rooms and a mixed dormitory are available. Sanitary facilities (compost toilet), water supply, (self-generated) electricity, and internet are provided. Volunteers are required to bring their own sleeping bag, pillow, towels, and work clothes. During the project, you can experience what it is like to live in an alternative community and participate in fun activities and evening programs.

Lage und Freizeit

In your free time, you can explore the city of Wageningen and surrounding towns and villages. Additionally, you can take beautiful walks in the surrounding nature reserves. The host can advise you on which places and activities in the area are worth visiting.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

Ppauw is a mobile eco-village and a haven for ecological experimentation. On the 'fringes' of Wageningen, a suitable ecological footprint is being sought. Ppauw is also a natural, biodiverse breeding ground for new insights in Wageningen. The eco-village lies hidden in the forest on the Wageningen Berg, on the grounds of a former hospital. Here, people are building the society of the future based on the principles of permaculture, ecological living, and collaboration. In addition to developing an ecological vision, Ppauw rents out equipment for events, organizes DIY weekends, and offers day programs to schools. The site is not connected to the grid, which creates challenges and requires local solutions, and decision-making at Ppauw is usually unofficial. Together with Ecodorpen Gelderland (CVEG), Platform Duurzaam Wageningen, Tussen de Bomen, Tiny Houses Wageningen, and the housing association, Ppauw is united in ‘De Beuk’. The goal is to realize an ecological residential community with 150 homes. The dream is to turn the entire city of Wageningen into an eco-village. Will you do your bit for this project?

This project combines well with the other IBO project at a regenerative farm and eco-village in Erlecom, as these projects are organized consecutively. This way, you can travel around the Netherlands for 2 weeks this summer and contribute to both projects!

Arbeit

Participating in the everyday life of the Centre, mainly giving a hand with the maintenance of the place (cooking, doing the laundry, cleaning, helping with the carpentry or gardening on a rotating basis, etc.). Personal care of residents who might need it (such as helping out to get dressed) is also a possible task, but only if you really feel prepared for doing it.
An important part of your stay will be socialising with the community of the centre. The presence of international volunteers in the centre brings "fresh air" to the limited social life of its residents. They will be curious about your country and your culture. It is a good idea to bring photos, music or any material which might enable you to present yourself and where you are coming from. It will be rare for them to speak other languages than Spanish. Therefore good knowledge of it is very recommended.
You have to take into account that you will be living in a therapeutic community. Following the guidelines that will be given at the beginning of the workcamp (such as those concerning timetable, punctuality, relationship among residents and volunteers, telephone calls, not smoking or drinking...) is an essential part of the therapeutic approach. BASIDA kindly requests you to do so. A team of professionals will be always there to back you up. Do not hesitate to ask them for advice. We count on your understanding and sensibility.

A workshop on drugs and HIV, socio-medical approach: “Course on Comprehensive care for people in social exclusion”, is organised during the first week.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

In the Centre there are rooms with beds for the volunteers. Meals will be taken with the residents in the common dining-room. There is also an outdoor swimming-pool and other sport facilities.

Lage und Freizeit

Trips to Aranjuez (a nice historical town), Toledo and Madrid will be possible one day in the week.
Though the agenda will be very busy, you will certainly have every day a bit of time for yourself and surely on Sundays.

Since the residents have limited permission to leave the Centre for recreational purposes, you would prove your solidarity towards them to check with the Director when it is more convenient to leave the Centre.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

BASIDA is an NGO that provides medical and psychosocial support to HIV-positives, drug addicted people and others with special needs. Since 1990, it has opened three centres; all of them run by a multi-professional voluntary staff. One of these three centres is located in Aranjuez, a village located in Madrid County.

The physical and psychological recovery as well as the social rehabilitation of Basida residents are being achieved thanks to close teamwork focused on proving to them that someone really cares for them. The Basida team tries to help those attending the centre, who for a long time have only experienced social exclusion, to regain hope and self-esteem.
For more information you can take a look at BASIDA´s web page: www.basida.org.
Precisely this camp has already taken place a few times. The experience has been very positive for everyone.

Anreise zum Treffpunkt

On August 16 at Navahondilla bus stop at 19.00 o'clock, we will pick you up from there.

Anforderungen

Mental Health: Given the high-pressure emotional environment and the vulnerability of the residents, this project may not be suitable for individuals currently dealing with severe psychological conditions or those requiring highly stable/flexible environments.

Spanish Language: A medium level of Spanish is highly recommended as it is the main language for social integration with residents not required.

Motivation: A motivation letter or a short interview may be requested to ensure the volunteer’s profile aligns with the therapeutic goals of the centre.

You can take a bus from the TAPO terminals in Mexico City. The arrival point is the CAPU bus terminal in Puebla, which is 2 hours from Mexico City. At the terminal, you can buy a ticket to get to Atlixco, which costs approximately 40 to 60 pesos. The vans or minibuses that go to Tochimilco leave from an area near the center of Atlixco, mainly around Dr. Luis Sánchez Domínguez Street at the corner with 11 Sur, near the former factory known as "La Concha." Another practical option if you can't find a direct van or bus is to take a taxi or app-based service (Uber, Didi) from the center of Atlixco. This will take you directly to Tochimilco and costs approximately $240-$300.
