THEME: advocacy against gender-based violence in society
Gender based violence within the society is multi-pronged, the female gender at the receiving end of menfolk malevolence; perpetuated by cultural impunity.
Gender based violence within the society is multi-pronged and it either involves wife battering or husband battering and these cases are legion in some communities in Kenya and there is an urgent need to combat the malady.
Primary causes:
-Law enforcing bodies frustrating women who report cases of being beaten by their husbands -Alcohol and drug abuse by the husband
Main Objective: To reduce the cases of domestic violence

-Failure of men to provide basic needs at home/ unemployment of husbands which leads to frustration
-Men think they are superior in homes than women/women considered as property
Secondary causes:

-Polygamy; boys who grow up from violent homes too can be violent in their homes
-Dowry and bride price paid for women: men feel they own them
Specific Objectives: 
-To create awareness on women's rights as partners in marriage
-To train men and women on conflict management

Information about the campsite can be found at https://www.braunschweig.de/zeltplatz-lenste and at the bottom of https://www.braunschweig.de/zeltplatz-lenste/zeltplatz.php there is also a short film (unfortunately also only in German) about the campsite.

The children and youth campsite is just a few metres away from the beautiful Baltic Sea beach. In April it will probably still be too cold to go swimming, but there will be bicycles available for you to use, so you can go on bike rides on the embankments along the Baltic coast!
There is a wide range of free-time activities available for you on the huge outdoor area of the campsite: several football pitches, a beach volleyball court, a beach football court, a beach handball court, a basketball court, a huge bouncy castle, a zip-line, several table tennis tables and giant chess. You can spend your evenings around the campfire.
On the free weekend, it’s also worth taking a trip to Hamburg (100km away) and/or Lübeck (50km away).

Children's and youth campsite of the city of Braunschweig
The campsite at Lenster Strand in Grömitz on the Baltic Sea is mainly used for recreation by children and young people from Brunswick, but can also be used by other groups and families. It is primarily aimed at children and young people from lower-income families and thus makes an important contribution to their recreation and relief.

The ijgd has been organising volunteer service programmes since 1949. We are an independent, non-profit association for international youth work, a recognised independent youth welfare organisation, and one of the largest and oldest workcamp organisations in Germany. Each year, we assist around 5,000 young people into volunteer work in Germany and abroad. We give them the opportunity to be creative, act in solidarity, take responsibility for themselves, and discover their own true potential and strengths. Our principles: Ecological learning, voluntary contribution, self-organisation, social development, intercultural learning, gender equality, anti-racism/anti-discrimination and political education.

This year, you will help with the set construction. During 2025, 2 plays will be performed (The Three Musketeers, an adventure play that tells the story of the young d'Artagnan, who joins the French king's musketeers and fights with them against intrigue, rivalry and danger- and Alice im Wunderland, a surrealist theatre piece that depicts the adventures of young Alice in a fantastical land where she encounters bizarre creatures) the stage needs to be renewed accordingly: In the end, the scenery is supposed to suit both plays– a very interesting and challenging task! You will screw, nail, and paint. Smaller props will need to be built, too.

Apart from that, your work will also entail doing:
• Installing a wooden floor in the prop garage.
• Renewing the cover of the small wooden shelf storage.
• Painting service huts
• Support stage construction
• Clean, repair + paint fence around the perimeter of the site
• Paint hall walls
• Clean the stones around the cold hall with a high-pressure cleaner, replace/refill grit if necessary.
• And some other tasks as needed! Be sure to be always prepare to lend a helping hand

There will be a professional work instructor who helps you with all tasks. For sure it is helpful though, if you have a bit of experience in manual/constructional work and have used tools like cordless screwdrivers before.

Alojamiento y comida

You will be accommodated directly on the project side: Next to the stage, there is huge building for administration, a workshop, a café … here you will have one big room for yourselves, showers, and a kitchen. Mind that there is only one big room for sleeping available to all volunteers – no separation possible! Regarding food, you will be asked to cook for yourselves, and carry out all related activities (grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning after yourselves).

Heidenheim an der Brenz is a town with a bit less than 50.000 inhabitants in the southern region of Baden-Württemberg. The area is rather rural with a beautiful countryside: since it is at the end of the Swabian Albs – a mountain range of about 220km-, there are many hills and forests. Also in the town you will find the Hellenstein Castle, first built on the 12th century, and wildlife park with around 100 animals, very close to your project. If you would like to visit a larger town, you may go to Ulm which is only 30km away. Stuttgart and Munich are just about 2 hours by train.

Lights, Curtain, Action! Are you ready to take part in the building of a Theater?

Your host will the Open-Air Theatre Heidenheim, the 2nd largest one of its kind in Southern Germany.

It is situated on the “castle hill” of the town of Heidenheim an der Brenz, surrounded by forests, and can accommodate up to 1100 spectators.
The Open-Air Theatre is run by a non-profit association and they are very excited about hosting again a group of international volunteers. This project is perfect for everyone who is interested in theatres and wants to have a look behind the scenes! Have a look at the Theatre here: www.naturtheater.de

The association was first founded by Gustav Müller over 100 years ago, after the first World War, in his quest of dedicating his life to something that would unite people: art. In 1919 not only did Müller materialize this idea, but also managed to host several productions at the concert hall.
Nowadays, with over 500 members of all ages, the Naturtheater Heidenheim association is one of the popular organizations in the city of Heidenheim and its surrounding area.

Nestling in a lush green valley, the commune of Coly - St Amand lies at the heart of the Périgord Noir, an area rich in history! It's made up of two former communes that have decided to come together as one, and we'll be working to bring these formerly separate areas together as one.
The Ecocycle association is a third-place organisation that is developing a participatory activity project in the commune of Saint Amand de Coly and the surrounding area. These activities are strongly influenced by concerns about climate change.
A third place like Ecocycle in Coly-Saint-Amand is a shared space that brings together people, ideas and projects to encourage collaboration and social links. It's a place open to everyone, where you can work, talk, learn and sometimes even relax. Halfway between home and the workplace, a third place can host a variety of activities: workshops, cultural events, training courses or collective projects.
At Ecocycle, for example, there is a strong ecological and community dimension. It promotes recycling, creatively with reused materials, and the development of a shared garden. It's a place that supports local initiatives while creating a welcoming and inspiring environment for residents and visitors alike. In short, it's much more than just a building: it's a place for life, ideas and encounters!

Hiiumaa, according to the Nordic sagas, emerged from the Baltic Sea as a small islet more than 10 000 years ago. The island of Hiiumaa was first mentioned in historical documents as a deserted island called Dageida in 1228. The first inhabitants settled down at the end of the 13th century. Nowadays, Hiiumaa is the second biggest island of Estonia with an area of 965 sq. km and a population of around 9 000. It has many historical and nature sights, and there are kind people known for their hospitality and good sense of humor. The island is referred to as a remote area of Europe, and EstYES feels particularly proud developing international voluntary projects for over twenty years there. EstYES has been cooperating with eco-farms all over Estonia for solidarity and practical support to local people who work in the agricultural sector keeping traditional lifestyle and developing new eco-farming despite all difficulties. Alliksaare Farm on Hiiumaa Island is one of such projects. This is an organic farm promoting sustainable lifestyle, and this camp is proposed for volunteers who appreciate and share its values, want to learn more about it and to help hard working people.

Environmental protection is a pressing global priority, particularly in Nepal, where solid waste management poses significant environmental and health challenges. Rapid urbanization and changing consumption patterns increase waste, which, if poorly managed, causes environmental harm and health risks. In VIN s communities, improper waste disposal in schools and public areas contributes to littering and health issues like respiratory problems, diarrhea, and skin diseases. Non-biodegradable waste (NBW), especially in areas like Jitpurphedi and Kavresthali, further damages the environment and agriculture. This project, Environmental Stewards: Preserving Our Common Home, aims to promote sustainable waste management practices such as segregation, recycling, and composting, empowering communities for a cleaner, healthier Nepal.

During this lively festival, people throw colored powders and water to share blessings and celebrate a bountiful harvest. Originally a Hindu tradition, Holi is now celebrated by many, including non-Hindus across South Asia and beyond. The festivities include gathering with family and friends, playing music, and enjoying special foods and drinks. Volunteers help prepare and celebrate the Holi festival in the community.

The island of Giglio is part of the Tuscan Archipelago National Park and the "Cetacean Sanctuary" protected area. The Island of Giglio, situated opposite Monte Argentario, covers an area of 21 square kilometers, is the second largest island in the Tuscan Archipelago and is renowned for its natural beauty: the crystal-clear emerald sea, with its rich and fishy seabed, frames an area that is still 90% wild. In addition to its natural heritage of beaches and coastline, the island has two towns, Giglio Castello, a charming medieval village that stands on the heights of the island, and Giglio Porto, the island's only port, small and picturesque, with multicolored houses and a clear sea. Isola del Giglio has a resident community of about 1000 people, mainly engaged in tourist activities, strongly linked to their territory and always used to dealing with new visitors.

The workcamp is organized by Proloco, a cultural organization, that has among its institutional tasks the valorization of the natural, cultural and historical resources of Giglio island, as well as the realization of initiatives of touristic interest. The Pro.Loco promotes the workcamp in collaboration with the municipality and a network of associations in the area: Lega Navale, Giglio Ambiente and a Consortium of local waste companies, which work together every year to clean the island's coastline.
The Mediterranean Sea, although constituting less than 1% of the planet's water surface, is the sixth area of accumulation of waste in the world. Plus, during winter storms, waves dump an important amount of waste, mainly plastic. And an Island like ours, which lives mainly on tourism, the care and maintenance of its natural resources is the first ticket to see, as well as the minimum requirement to allow our visitors to live the fantastic experience they deserve. The objective of this project is to reduce the waste on the island’s coast which would benefit the environment and tourism. By joining this workcamp you will contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals: Climate Action-SDG13; Life below water-SDG14.
