Arbeit

Do you want to learn ancient stonework techniques and to register your action in accordance with the objective 12 of sustainable development (UN) in favor of sustainable consumption and production and learn how to use ancient and ecological materials?
The "Sentier des Moines" (monks' path) winds along the hillside below the chapel; it is supported by dry stone retaining walls and has a stone-covered path, called a "calade" in southeast France. This year, it is a portion of the alley of Fusains which joins the path of the Monks that it will be necessary to continue to rehabilitate in dry stone in order to give again its initial aspect in a preoccupation with the valorisation of the heritage of Serres.
The following work will be undertaken: fishing and sorting of stones, earthwork and construction of the calade according to the very precise technique of dry stone construction (theoretical and practical contribution).

The workcamp will be supervised by a professional in dry stone construction techniques. A daily work of 6 hours is planned, the daily organisation will be discussed and decided by the group of participants. The pedagogical objective is to discover a traditional construction technique which does not require any material, except stones from the stoning of fields intended for agriculture or recovered from old buildings. Theoretical, historical, and practical contributions will be disseminated. It should be noted that this workcamp is part of a more global action to enhance the site of the chapel. The population of the village is invited to take part in the work of clearing the brush and creating a calade on the chapel square.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You will be accommodated in individual tents next to the municipal gymnasium of the small town (1km from the workcamp site, walking distance). A team of campleaders will be present to guide you in the organisation of the collective life: planning of the household tasks, elaboration of the menus and preparation of the meals in turn (vegetarian, vegan and other specific diets possible), organisation of the leisure activities and the outings. The purchase of local products is widely favoured. Bring a mattress, a good comforter (the nights can be cold) and a pillow (to be adapted according to your needs).

Lage und Freizeit

At the top of this village and at the bend in the monks' path, is the chapel of Notre Dame de Bon Secours, which overlooks the Buëch valley. This building was erected in 1730 and blessed in 1732. Partly dug into the rock, it marries the hillside, on the presumed site of the former chapel of the castle of Serres. The Baronnies Provençales Regional Nature Park, in partnership with the association Les Villages des Jeunes and a hiking organisation, launched an operation to raise awareness and promote the drystone building technique in 2018. Elected officials and inhabitants will be mobilised for this workcamp through restoration actions and discoveries of the dry-stone built heritage (conference, visit).

Go and meet children and young people who are left unseen in our society. Together, break down the barriers of disability and live an enriching human experience!

You will be welcomed in a medical-educational institute, the IME Maurice Chantelauze, located a few hundred metres from the small town of La Chaise-Dieu. This institute welcomes children and teenagers with intellectual disabilities. You will work alongside them throughout the project, the first week with the 17 to 21 year olds and the second week with the children and their educators.
Your objective will be to create a large play and sports course in the park of the IME. To do so, you will build wooden modules of different sizes, thinking about how they can be adapted for the children of the Institute. This mobility course will allow them to develop their motor skills and practice physical activity in a fun way. You will spend about 30 hours per week on this workcamp. Alongside a technical camp leader, these missions will allow you to familiarize yourself with or improve your handling of tools and to participate in various manual tasks.
We invite you to contribute to this project with a strong social vocation!

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You will be accompanied by two camp leaders throughout your stay.
You will be accommodated on site in one of the Institute's buildings, which will be reserved for your group. Accommodation is in twin rooms, with toilets and showers in the corridor. You will have a kitchen, a dining room and activity rooms for recreation.

Lage und Freizeit

If you suffer from the heat in summer, this workcamp is for you!
Located 2 hours 15 minutes from Lyon and 1 hour 30 minutes from Clermont-Ferrand, two thirds of the area are covered by a forest with exceptional flora. The medieval village of La Chaise-Dieu, with 700 inhabitants, is nestled on a promontory at an altitude of 1100 metres, a real haven of coolness in summer. In the heart of the town, stroll through the streets where houses with medieval facades house craftsmen and cultural pubs. Here, the town has the largest high-altitude abbey in Europe, with its amazing echo chamber!

The village is surrounded by lakes: The La Tour lake has a small beach for swimming with a pontoon, picnic tables under the nearby pine forest, a volleyball court... Pedal boats can be rented at the “Guinguette pub”, whose terrace is very pleasant in the summer. Numerous hiking trails allow you to discover the Livradois-Forez Natural Park.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

This is the first project that will take place in this Institute.
Located in the town of La Chaise-Dieu, the IME Maurice Chantelauze is managed by the PEP 43 association, whose actions are guided by the values of solidarity, equality and citizenship. It manages several establishments for people with disabilities and thus participates in the construction of a more inclusive, enlightened and supportive society.
The IME welcomes about fifty children and teenagers with intellectual disabilities who, for this reason, cannot attend a traditional school. You will discover their world alongside a multidisciplinary team (director, psychiatrist, psychologist, social worker, educators) who work hard every day to promote the development and maximum autonomy of the children in their care.
The children are waiting for you with a little shyness and a lot of impatience!

Come and learn about permaculture in the sumptuous setting of the Aravis mountains by
participating in a garden redevelopment project!
The Youth Hostel of La Clusaz welcomes all year long many tourists who take advantage of
their stay to discover the beauty of the surrounding nature and to practice many outdoor
activities. The hostel has created a permaculture garden which reflects the local biodiversity.
The garden is an open space, accessible to all, and allows the observation of nature, to
recharge one's batteries and to understand the interactions between ecosystems. During this
first volunteer workcamp, you will work on the redevelopment of the garden from the existing
one and you will be able to create additional arrangements to offer an additional
embellishment (wood or stone construction).
No specific skills are required. If you are sensitive to the preservation of the environment in
the mountains and you like to work in a team, this workcamp is for you.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You will be accommodated in the Youth Hostel, in dormitories with individual beds
(remember to bring your sleeping bag). The toilets and showers will be in the rooms or on the
landing. Breakfast will be offered every morning by the youth hostel. Together, you will
participate in the organization of the collective life (cleaning, activities...) and in the
preparation of the meals, in turn, from products which will be bought nearby. We wish to
encourage vegetarian food with local and seasonal products while respecting the diets of the
participants and discovering together the local cuisines. You will be in contact with the clients
of the youth hostel, which will reinforce the exchanges.
The youth hostel has Wifi in the common areas.

Lage und Freizeit

With a breathtaking view on the Aravis valley and the Mont-Blanc, the Youth Hostel of La
Clusaz is located at 1250 meters of altitude. Accessible on foot, by bike or by car, the
establishment is close to the center of the resort which offers many amenities (shops, local
and health services...). On site, outdoor activities are numerous and hiking enthusiasts will
be delighted by the opportunities offered by the alpine massif. Many excursions are also
possible: Annecy and its lake, Chamonix Mont-Blanc, Aiguille du Midi... Of course, you will

not escape from the tasting of the local gastronomy with a special mention for the cheeses!
The proximity of the Annecy train station and the Geneva airport, both located about 40
kilometers away, will facilitate your trip. Buses also serve the resort regularly.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

Concordia has been collaborating with the youth hostel network for three years in the context
of volunteer workcamps. This partnership is developing this year with a new project within
the establishment located in La Clusaz. It is with the desire to strengthen the international
and intercultural dimension of its activity that Clement, the director of the hostel, wanted to
welcome a group of volunteers. The environmental dimension is also an issue at the heart of
the priorities of a tourism that is evolving under the effect of climate change.

Anreise zum Treffpunkt

The meeting point is set at LA CLUSAZ “gare routiere” bus station on the 23rd of June in the end of the afternoon.

sweater, shorts and hiking pants, windbreaker, down jacket, warm socks...). For hikes, shoes
with a high and notched upper are recommended. Don't forget sun protection (hat or cap is
essential, sunglasses with a high protection factor because of the intense reverberation,
sunscreen with a high protection factor IP 30-50...) and a bathing suit for swimming or white
water activities.
For accommodation, remember to take a warm sleeping bag and a towel. You should also
bring a backpack (in addition to your luggage), comfortable sneakers and a pair of flip-flops
for your movements in the youth hostel. It will also be useful to bring these essential
accessories: a cell phone charger, hiking poles (not mandatory but recommended), a water
bottle, a set of bandages and a headlamp or flashlight.
Friendly times will be programmed in collaboration with our leaders and according to your
desires. We will organize thematic evenings in each country. If you wish to share a bit of your
culture (cooking recipes, traditional stories, unusual objects, music...), do not hesitate to take
a little piece of your country/region in your backpack.

Be creative and let your imagination loose to create a giant game and allow the tourists and passengers to discover the local archaeological heritage!
We have been working in partnership since 2013 with the Sarthe Departemental Council (owner of the site) and the commune of Aubigne-Racan for the restoration of the archaeological site.
The archaeological site of Cherre is particularly renowned for its built heritage as it is classified as a Historical Monument. This place is also a natural site classified since 1975, and is lesser known for its environmental value and its biodiversity.
Since last year, the archaeological site benefits from a conservation and preservation plan that can no longer be carried out within the framework of Concordia workcamps. This is why we have been thinking about the implementation of another project to promote the site.
The workcamp of the year 2022 concerned the realization of podcasts to boost the appreciation of the site of Cherre.
This year, we want to continue the project of enhancing the site, by creating a great game! This game could be a giant cluedo, or a treasure hunt!
You will be in charge of creating a great game with the objective of making tourists discover the site of Cherre in a playful and educational way. Between biodiversity and archaeology, it is up to you to find the best scenario to highlight this heritage! Take us on a journey!

Arbeit

You will be involved with the team in the development of the exterior and in part of the restoration of the former holiday camp. In particular, you will be involved in clearing the paths and passages around the building (cleaning, clearing brush and cutting). You will also carry out minor masonry work. You will work 25 hours per week.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

The workcamp will take place in a particularly isolated area, where you will be accommodated on the REV site in individual tents. Please bring your sleeping bag. You will have access to sanitary facilities near the camp. If the weather conditions are too bad to camp, a shelter will be available a few meters away. Meals will be provided and prepared in turn by the participants.

Lage und Freizeit

Pont-de-Montvert, very close to the Mont Lozère, in the Cévennes, at an altitude of 1500m.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

The workcamp will take place at the permanent home of the REV, a former holiday camp at an altitude of 1500m. This site is located at the foot of Mont Lozère in the heart of the Cévennes. The REV took over the site last spring and wants it to become a place of hospitality, exchange and meeting. It is ideally situated on the Stevenson trail (GR70). The project therefore aims to develop the exterior so that visitors can find a pleasant place to meet international volunteers, work camp volunteers, etc.

Anreise zum Treffpunkt

Trains departing from Montpellier and Marseille will take you to Génolhac via Nimes.
