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

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

ProjectThis project is organized for local children by The Language School In Down-Town and the non-profit educational association Alternative Language Programs Satellite (ALPS) as part of their annual activities on multicultural issues for youth. Some international teenage participants may join. The common project s aim is to introduce the diversity of world cultures to children and provide them with good practices in intercultural communication using the learning-by-doing method and organizing alternative English language practice. The project gets youngsters familiar with customs and traditions of the countries from all over the world and encourages them to develop their cross-cultural thinking and tolerance as well as global thinking and individual initiative. This summer we offer you to participate in our project called LANDSCAPES . We invite volunteers to support our camp participants learning about a new trend of ecosystems in nature, society, technologies, economy, politics and human relationships. Together, we plan to find out how these complex deeply interwoven ecosystems shape the way we live, learn and thrive, and what those competences are that empower humans to understand, navigate, and positively influence them. Camp participants will try to develop their strategies for a holistic, interconnected view of the world and gain ideas on how not just to survive in a complex world - but to help reshape it toward greater justice, sustainability, and flourishing for all life. Meetings with local and/or international professionals in the field will take place. Thematic photo and video contests for camp participants will be organized.NB It is possible and you are welcome to apply for 2 shifts in a row EST DT1 EST DT2 or EST DT3 EST DT4

Arbeit

You will work on preserving the facades of the Hôtellerie building, located in the hamlet of Vaunières. This stone facade is currently covered with an insulation layer and a very damaged coating. You will be responsible for preparing the facades for traditional lime-based work, repointing the stones with mortar, and then applying the bonding coat. A local craftsman will guide you through the different phases of the project. Some tasks will involve working on scaffolding. Every day, other site maintenance activities will be proposed, as well as meal preparation for the team. The menu will be defined in advance. You will work on the site every morning, from Monday to Friday. Generally, the work involves masonry, tool and meal preparation, as well as organizing and managing collective life.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You will be accommodated in a campsite, in individual tents. A kitchen, dry toilets, and showers will be at your disposal. We welcome you to the hamlet of Vaunières, a hosting site located at an altitude of 1,170 meters. Here, we pay attention to our diet to reduce our environmental impact: we eat local food as much as possible and reduce our meat consumption to twice a week. Daily life is organized collectively: planning menus (vegetarian, vegan, etc.), grocery shopping, activities, etc. We organize shopping trips once or twice a week with the vehicles provided on site.

Lage und Freizeit

Location : The hamlet of Vaunières is 6 km from the village of St-Julien-en-Beauchêne and 23 km from the town of Veynes. There is no Wi-Fi and the connection is weak, but you will meet people from all over the world!

Leisure : You will be in an exceptional location to discover the pleasures of mountain hiking, its rivers, its lakes, farmers' and producers' markets, and festive evenings organized in surrounding villages (depending on the schedule). Here, you will be the protagonists of your stay: you will play an important role in organizing your time with the support of the leadership team.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

In the heart of an impressive mountain cirque in the French Alps, the hamlet of Vaunières rises on a vast, gently sloping plain. Surrounded by large stone buildings, meadows, and forests, the village welcomes people of various cultures, ages, and social backgrounds, creating a unique atmosphere. Purchased in ruins in the 1960s by the association Les Villages des Jeunes, the site has been entirely renovated and is now a vibrant place of life, animated by events and the multiple local and international connections forged there. Vaunières has become a place for meeting, working, and sharing, where everyone can enjoy both the calm of the mountains and the dynamic energy that emanates from the site. Today, the site lives thanks to a team of employees working on site maintenance, groups of volunteers, tourists, passing hikers, and enthusiasts. Roll up your sleeves and join us on the workcamp and in our collective living spaces!

Anreise zum Treffpunkt

We will take you by shuttle to Vaunières from the Veynes-Dévoluy or Lus-la-Croix-Haute train stations. Meeting point on July 24th, 2026, from 3 pm onwards.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

Esperanzah! is a festival that has been offering a varied programme of well-known and lesser-known artists since 2002. It takes place at Floreffe Abbey, between Charleroi and Namur in Belgium. It is organised by the Zah! Cooperative.



Esperanzah! Is a musical, festive and committed experience. As you enter the festival site, you wiill discover Esperanzah Island!

Discover the world and take a tasty trip to the Comptoir des Saveurs, or make new connections by meeting the craftspeople and designers at Baz'Art.



The Esperanzah! festival is founded on strong values and principles of good conduct. They guide every aspect of the event.

Our aim has always been to celebrate artistic and cultural diversity while working towards a positive social, political and environmental impact. Social inequality and exclusion, poverty, discrimination and environmental damage are issues that we fight against in every choice we make.

Through collective spaces for reflection and exchange, we explore new perspectives on society. We encourage a society that is more respectful of the environment, more supportive, fairer, feminist, anti-capitalist, inclusive and anti-racist.

We want our values to be embraced by everyone involved, whether they are part of the organising team, festival-goers, artists, external service providers or volunteers.

Arbeit

The load of work is split into the Morning and Afternoon shifts for 2 volunteers. There are no working hours but a list of tasks or operations, which are expected to be completed timely, meaning that the key time points for being at the campus logically come from the purpose of the working task according to the camp schedule. The same is about the days-off. There are days that are completely or partially free days with no or few tasks to do, other days may be more intensive involving long stay-in working days. The working tasks throughout the week fall into two main categories, such as household chores (including some simple cooking) and pastoral and welfare support (including urgent night patrol and access to the building). Thus, the volunteer will mainly do some of these: supervise meals and all kinds of sanitary routine, manage behaviour and adherence to policies as well as daily routine and order in bedrooms or facilities supervise campus health and safety orientation, manage evening activity and/or leisure programme, communicate with parents. The work requires high level of responsibility.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

The premises of The Language School In Down-Town locate on the 4th and 5th floors of a business building in the city centre. In summer time, a part of the school is reserved for the volunteers accommodation that includes several separate dormitory bedrooms, a fitted kitchen, a small dining area, a large shower area and two separate toilet cabins. Bed linen, towels, pillows and blankets will be provided, so you do NOT need to bring a sleeping bag unless you want so. For the reasons of security, volunteers will be issued only one set of keys. To facilitate a smooth and safe environment at school during the off-hours, the entrance to the school must be kept closed at all times. Catering will be organized by the school on an agreement with the volunteers (selection of times, meals - provided or volunteers cook, etc.).

Arbeit

The municipality of Heilsbronn will focus on three different projects to renovate and maintain the town’s infrastructure, with the help of international volunteers:

- Preservation tasks for the “Vita Parcours’” fitness trail: Clear the over-grown plants along the paths and across the different stations, make signs visible, and clean the stations and trails of any leftover trash.

- Create an insect hotel and fields: With a handmade insect hotel and colorful blooming fields, we will transform empty spaces into a thriving refuge for bees and butterflies.

- Renovate the “Barfußpfad” (barefoot path): This path is highly valued and used by the local community, especially by children and families. It includes many different textures such as pebbles, moss, and pine cones. The tasks will require emptying and refilling different sections of the path

Additional similar projects may be added. You should expect to be working outdoors alongside municipal workers in renovation or construction tasks. No previous experience is required since a professional instructor will be there to provide support and guidance through the different tasks. You will work 30 hour per week between 8am to 4pm from Monday to Friday with a lunchbreak on site.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You will be staying at the local youth club called ‘’JUZ’’. The accommodation consists of two large rooms and a smaller one where you will sleep on camp beds or mattresses on the floor.

The group of volunteers will be responsible for meal preparation, which includes grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning up afterward.
