Lage und Freizeit

The ‘Drentsche Aa’ area is a varied old cultural landscape, shaped by age old interplay of agriculture and nature. The ‘Drentsche Aa’ is also the name of the stream that meanders through this area and creates a typical landscape that is declared National Park. It includes 16 authentic villages. Volunteers will discuss the recreational program together with the camp leaders. For example they can explore the area by bike, go swimming, visit the city of Groningen, Westerbork transit camp (where Anne Frank was prisoned) and other places in the Netherlands.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

This project is a unique combination of a 3-day training and 2 weeks of volunteering. The training activities will help the team building of the group. The participants will also work on intercultural communication and collaboration. Finally, you will reflect on your own learning goals for the project as well as the meaning of sustainability and the environment as the volunteering will focus on personal development through working in an international group on nature preservation.
