Travail

This project is a continuation of the first one carried out in July and is in advance of another one. It will consist of protecting the structure from bad weather and laying a temporary floor in preparation for the final restoration of the roof using the methods of the time.
In detail, this work, centered around carpentry, will consist of
- the installation of a floor structure based on the existing low wall
- laying a temporary floor on this structure
- the construction of a framework to protect the structure
- the installation of a temporary roof over this structure
- the construction of a protective barrier around the ice house
The work will take place between 8:30AM and 1PM and between 2:30PM and 4:30PM, with a break of 30 minutes around 11AM.

Logement et nourriture

Participants will be hosted on Le Créneau’s camping, in collective tents with wooden floors and beds. WiFi is not available on site. Food will be provided and prepared by the participants in groups, with the support of the cooking staff.

Situation, loisirs

The workcamp is located in Montcombroux les Mines, 45 kms away from Moulins. Weekends are planned collectively with the group leaders. If you want to discover the cities around, Vichy and Moulins are 45 kms away. If you’d rather have a nice walk in nature, the surroundings are perfect for hiking, landscape seeing, discovering local markets, swimming, and enjoying sports activities and games.

Partenaire

What’s the common point between a castle, winter and a giant hole in the floor ? The answer is in Le Créneau ! During this project, you will help us renovate the fixed ice house on the castle grounds. The ice collected from the water in winter was stored there to ensure the preservation of foodstuffs throughout the year.
Help us enhance this small heritage, to give it acknowledgment and to highlight the skills acquired over the years!
Currently without any roof protection, the ice house must be waterproofed to protect it from bad weather. Your actions will be in accordance with the objectives 5 and 8 of sustainable development (UN) in favor of gender equality and decent work and economic growth.

Let’s meet at Moulins-sur-Allier train station, at 5PM !

Travail

L'Atelier Vert works all year round to protect biodiversity. By coming to this site, you will be able to make proposals and decisions about the work to be carried out. The idea is that as volunteers, you are actors and actresses of your workcamp.
The members of L'Atelier Vert can, for example, suggest that you restore former wasteland in a biodiversity zone (depollution of the site, digging of ponds, installation of nesting boxes, signage, etc.), to install a nature trail (installation of panels, creation of the path, markup...), to animate a small festival of discovery of nature, etc. You can define several missions for the workcamp and thus diversify the working days. For each mission, you will be accompanied by leaders of the L'Atelier Vert association.

Logement et nourriture

You will be accommodated in tents. Don't forget your sleeping bags and mattresses. Toilets and showers will be available nearby, in the premises of the L'Atelier Vert association stadium, and a kitchen will be set up at the camp. All aspects of collective life (shopping, preparing meals, cleaning) will be managed by the volunteers themselves, on the basis of an operation that they will have decided on together (e.g. use planning, formation of pairs, etc.). They will be helped in this task by a community life facilitator. The goal: for each volunteer to be an actor in their stay with respect for others and community life.

Situation, loisirs

L'Atelier Vert is located in Rosières-aux-Salines, near Nancy, in eastern France. By coming to this construction site, you will be able to take advantage of a great associative and resident dynamic: many people from Rosières and the surrounding area will be delighted to spend working hours and festive evenings with you! Moments of sharing and animations will be planned by the employees of L'Atelier Vert.
This workcamp can also be an opportunity for you to discover the East of France: the city of Nancy, its magnificent Place Stanislas and the surrounding countryside. Hiking, swimming, canoeing or other outings can be organized if you wish.

Partenaire

Is environmental protection a subject close to your heart? Come and discover the L'Atelier Vert association!

In the continuity of the work done in 2021, you will have to redefine the layout of a part of the path and stabilize the surroundings while taking care to homogenize the whole. In a second phase, you will be asked to repair the damaged steps in an identical manner. If the path is communal, the restanques are on private parcels and will not be the object of any work. Through the realization of this project, the commune wishes to encourage the private owners concerned to undertake consolidation and/or repair work on the terraces along the pathway, in addition to enhancing its heritage.From a technical point of view, you will be supervised by a mason/calaver who will pass on his know-how and his knowledge. You will learn the technique of dry stone during the repair or the construction of low walls, but also the stone cutting necessary to the repair of certain steps. Beyond the technical contribution, the craftsman, well accustomed to the territory, will allow you to understand your environment and its specificities: agricultural and pastoral tradition linked to the restanques, history of the technique and its specificities. Thanks to this workcamp, you will be able to mobilize and develop the skills necessary to conduct optimal group work as well as collective life on the camp, which are listening, attention and mutual aid. Each volunteer will be asked to take an active part in the collective life of the group: preparation of meals, cleaning of dishes, cleaning of sanitary facilities and premises.

Logement et nourriture

You will be accommodated in the municipal campsite under tent where you will have access to common sanitary facilities and a kitchen. You will participate in the collective preparation of meals and in the tasks of daily life. You will be accommodated not far from the village.

This ancient chapel now houses an altar and two statues, that of Mary Magdalene and a wolf.This path is used every year by many visitors and allows to promote the rural heritage of Provence as well as the religious heritage of the village.

Solidarités Jeunesses (SJ) is a national movement of non-formal education and is composed of a National Secretary (Paris), and eight regional delegations across France. Our delegations host international volunteers throughout the year. Each regional delegation is unique, but all of the activities organized benefit the local community and share common ground: - gather people from different culture and social background to participate in social, ecological and cultural development. - contribute to the integration of people with fewer opportunities. Each project is dedicated to actions of solidarity and collective living. We believe that cultural exchanges are a key for personal learning and for the volunteer to experiment and undergo personal development.

You could arrive at the airport in Paris. Then you must take the train to Grenoble. Once in Grenoble, take the southbound train to Gap (direction to Gap or Valence) and get off at the station “ Lus la Croix- haute”. Or, We can suggest other airports as Geneva, Lyon, Grenoble and Marseille. It takes less time than coming from Paris The nearest train is “ Lus La Croix-Haute”. You can check more information about train by visiting to website : http://www.sncf.com/ Also the second train station closer is Veynes-Dévoluy. Usually, we ask people to arrive in Lus La Croix Haute train station and then we pick up them directly there with our van. Also if you take bus from your country, there are big international bus station in Lyon and Grenoble. And if you arrive by car, our exact adress is: Villages des Jeunes, Hameau de Vaunières, 05140 Saint-Julien-en-Beauchêne.

Travail

The main goals of the project are to meet one another, to create a constructive dynamic, as well to break stereotypes, and stigmas by working together and living collectively. Incline to “Education Popu- laire” which believes that everyone can teach and learn each other without formal educational ways. All the project in Vaunières is corresponding to below goals.

Part of the job in Vaunières is to host. We have 65 places for hosting groups (adults, disabled peoples, teenagers, children) anywhere from a day to a month. We host various type of group!
Usually social group are coming to live an experience with us. They work and share the collective life with us. The team of long-term volunteers is here to welcome them, explained them the project, propose to them some activities or just sharing time together. Groups are really interested by the internationality of our project and they are coming to meet volunteers also!
It could happen we rent the village for one week end for a giant roleplay, a wedding, etc.

Every morning, We have workshop like construction, gardening, cooking, cutting and splitting firewood and taking care of the chickens. It varies slightly day by day, but in the afternoon we continue to work. On Wednesday and Thursday we have meetings with permanent staff to talk about future workshops and collec-
tive life.
Long term volunteers can choose to have a personal project de- pending on what you want to learn, what you are interested in or what you can contribute. The village is open to improvements of all types. Anything is possible. We hope that your personal project advances the values of Vaunières. We welcome new ideas.

We host international workcamp from spring to the end of summer. These camps normally consist of 6-8 international volunteers and 6-8 French people. It could be camp for adult or for teenager. During 2 or 3 weeks, they work together in one specifically project (isolating wall, building wood house, etc.), share collective
life and live under tents. They have to build their own organization with their workcamp leader and with the technical leader.
The long term volunteers of Vaunières are usually the workcamp leader of these international workcamp. It’s one of their missions.

Logement et nourriture

We manage all aspects of the menu in house, cooking is one of daily workshops. Hence, everyone is involved at least a little bit in cooking and creating the menu. We organize “café menu”
time that each resident can propose menu items for the upcoming week. You are encouraged to cook meals from your country or region!
We try to consume as many local vegetables and fruits as possible. According to the reflection of ideal life of the association, we try to eat better: less meat, local and seasonal ingredients (meat, vegetables, fruits) and we try to buy as much we can organic food.
Also we like to do homemade jam with what we picked in Vaunières (raspberry, plum, etc).
And of course, we eat what is coming from our garden: salad, cabbage, tomato, etc

Association Les Villages des Jeunes
Les Villages des Jeunes is a regional branch of Solidarités Jeunesses and was created in 1963. The aim is to break the social, cultural and intergenerational barriers through a collective life, workshops and construction site. The goal of Villages des Jeunes is to give new energy to extremely rural places by allowing French and international volunteers , employees , young people, to live and work together on these places.
In AVJ, there are two villages which are 2 hosting places: La ferme du Fai and Le hameau de Vaunières. These places allow intercultural sharing and a life close to nature in the mountains (Hautes Alpes).

Vaunières is one of the hosting place of Villages des Jeunes. It’s located in the high alps and is nestled in the heart of mountains. Most of the houses date back to the 17th century, at a time when pastoral activities were thriving. Since the 1950’s, all the families had to left the countryside in search of better paying jobs. In 1960's, Villages des Jeunes has bought the hamlet of Vaunières to start their project. Step by step, they began to host local and international persons, groups, to bring life in the hamlet.

Located at the mouth of the Charente, the Fouras peninsula is home to 3 ports and 5 beaches of the Atlantic coast. In an idyllic setting with a view of Fort Boyard, the worksite will consist of the renovation of the Vauban fort, also called the Semaphore fort, which is in reality the medieval fortified castle of Fouras. It protected the city from a possible invasion from an enemy landing by the ocean. It is surrounded by 17th century fortifications: platforms, curtain walls and massive tower. This workcamp is part of the continuity of the partnership with the town of Fouras and its desire to pursue local development actions (renovation workcamp on the Fort de l'Aiguille as well), through the intercultural dynamics allowed by the volunteer youth workcamps.

Travail

Come and participate in the renovation of the small church of Avricourt, one of the few churches in the area that overcame the First World War.
In the continuity of the masonry work of the previous workcamps you will participate in the renovation of this small church. You will carry out traditional masonry work on the large facade of the church: repairing the joints of the walls, staking, repointing and even laying new bricks and stones. Part of the work may be at height and require climbing on scaffolding.

Logement et nourriture

You will have the reception hall of the village at your disposal as a place to live, which includes a well-equipped kitchen (community oven, dishwasher, big fridge etc.). Individual tents will be provided as well as a fallback solution in the reception hall in case of bad weather. Please note that there is only one shower and one toilet to share. The group will be sharing the cleaning chores and preparing meals together. The budget will be allocated to the group leader and you will participate in the grocery shopping and in the preparation of meals, prioritising products from the market and local producers.

Situation, loisirs

Avricourt is located 15 km from Noyon, in the North of Oise. In a central location in Picardie, you can visit Amiens, its cathedral and its “hortillonnages” (floating gardens), Compiegne and its imperial palace, Noyon and its historical centre. You can also hike in the surrounding countryside between cereal fields and small pasture valleys. If you are a nature lover, you would even discover the educational beehive with the school children and the beekepers of a small local producer. A concert given by the local band in the church is planned the day before the departure of the volunteers.

Partenaire

The commune of Avricourt is a historical partner of our office. Last years’ health crisis forced us to take a break in the partnership that has lasted for over 20 years! This small commune of barely 200 inhabitants does everything possible to give the best welcome to the volunteers: village meals, invitations to eat, donations of jams and other vegetables from the garden are a classic in Avricourt. In short, many exchanges are in prospect, especially since with the help of the animation team you will organize meetings and animations in the village and at the school.

Itinéraire vers le point de rendez-vous

The meeting point is scheduled at NOYON train station at the end of the afternoon on the 02/09. The exact meeting time will be given with the infosheet which will be sent at the latest 4 weeks before the start of the workcamp.
