Arbeit

The Special Nature Reserve Ludas Lake is one of the oldest protected areas in the world, known as wetlands of international importance as well as an ornithological reserve. The lake has rich bird fauna consisting of 214 recorded species, 140 of which are protected as natural rarities. They represent an essential feature of this valuable reserve for Serbia and Europe. Ludas Lake is the habitat of many endangered species, and is also an important station for migratory bird species. The volunteer activities will mainly focus on the revitalization of areas: cutting and removal of invasive plant species that threaten the natural habitat; repairing of educational paths in the woods of Ludas and Selevenjska; taking part in mowing and maintenance of steppe meadows at the Ludas Visitors’ Center; repairing the facade of the Fishermen Huts. These activities are carried out as measures of active protection of nature in order to preserve habitats, as well as the maintenance of the site’s infrastructure. Volunteers interested in projects related to the village and nature conservation are more than welcome.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

Lunch and dinner will be served in a restaurant, and breakfast will be prepared by participants, from the ingredients provided by the host.

Lage und Freizeit

Local ecologists, biologists and ornithologists will be frequenting the camp site, providing the information on the lake’s history, importance and long-term effects of our work, as well as on the environmental problems currently affecting the area.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

Public enterprise Palic-Ludas, the manager of the nature protected area organizes this workcamp for the last 18 years. In the changed ecological conditions, the reeds spread over the steppe habitats located on the loess slopes of the eastern bank of Ludas Lake, “suffocating” the populations of rare species of the Red List of Serbia, and changing the structure of existing plant communities. Due to strict protection measures, all activities not of scientific or educational importance are strictly forbidden. In certain areas, a small amount of controlled exploitation of resources may be allowed. The work will generally focus on revitalization of the area. Possible tasks are removal of invasive plant species endangering the natural habitat, preparing the area for educational children camps planned later during the summer, or renovating the old fisherman's cottage typical for the area. We may also work in the nearby protected areas, such as Selevenj heath or Subotica sands, as to, at the same time, explore the natural diversity northern Serbia has to offer.

Arbeit

The primary goal, on which the work of the second group will be based, is introducing new forms of expression, graffiti art and spreading popular culture through interaction with young people. An art that’s been marginalized throughout decades and classified as subculture gets its own legitimate place and recognition, through a phenomenon of a “street gallery”. Possible synthesis and collaboration between these two groups is possible depending on ideas and agreement among members. The participants will, according to their own affinities, decide between 2 groups, where they will express their creativity to the full extent. First days in camp will pass in getting acquainted with basics of mural painting and graffiti, as well as in exchanging ideas among participants themselves. Apart from the masterpiece, there is also a possibility of creating stencils, tags. The workshop will consist of two groups, organized around the idea of “street galleries”. First group’s task will be painting murals and introducing innovations to the technical procedure of the wall painting itself. The basic medium shall be acrylic facade paint; however, interventions and experimenting with the third dimension are also sought after.

Volunteers will be clearing the invasive vegetation and cleaning the riverside areas within the 'Kovilj-Petrovaradin Wetlands).

Ultimately, the aim of the camp is to contribute to raising awareness on the importance of conservation of special nature reserves through implementing quality ecotourism programmes. The volunteers will get the chance to know more about the ‘Kovilj-Petrovaradin Wetlands’ through workshops about flora and fauna, bird watching trips and other specially designed activities.

The workcamp will have two parts. One artistic and one ecological. The volunteers will participate in two workshops (painting on the canvas and painting of the walls) together with the local youth, where they will, in the course of two weeks, learn how to use these techniques and develop their own style. Each volunteer will paint one canvas and brainstorm ideas about the “blacklight” mural. The mural should promote the idea of the unity. In order to maintain the center clean and ecological, the volunteers will plant some trees nearby The Nest, help clean the riverside of Rasina, that flows on one side of the “Nest”, and also set up the trash bins alongside of the river. This way we will help the environment stay clean and more enjoyable for the locals to spent their free time in the nature. Last weekend of the camp, an exposition will be organized, where all of the work that the volunteers have done together with the local young people will be displayed, hopefully inspiring the locals to continue these type of activities in the future.

The furniture reflects the urban and ecological style that is visible in “The Nest”. This year we would like to include more young people to take part in the artistic and cultural activities in The Nest together with the international volunteers. Association "Fakiri sa juga" is a non-profit organization based in Krusevac, engaged in activities to promote art and culture for young people, which, by the words of this organisation Krusevac is greatly lacking. Their goals are creation and nourishment of modern artistic expression, revival and promotion of culture, the promotion of both the local and non-local artists and building a network that connects them, informal education of the youth, intermediating the dialogue with vulnerable social groups and developing their creative potential.

Arbeit

Besides the goal to protect and preserve nature, our idea is to revive activities of volunteerism in Trsic and to try to solve the issue of garbage being left behind the campers and tourists. The main goal is to at least partially resolve some important problems in Trsic, such as neglected areas, damaged bridges, planting some new trees instead of the ones that were cut. The main working activities will be carried out in the nature and woods of Trsic. Large number of river bridges are damaged and they need to be repaired. The work will consist of clearing the woods, cutting the bushes, removal of smaller tree trunks and burning the smaller branches. The plan is to work on renovation and marking of the hiking/biking trail. Also, we will do some cleaning work – collecting garbage. In order to make this camp sustainable, we will plant 100 seedlings of different trees where forests existed before but due to logging have disappeared. Our goal is to provide free seedlings through a sustainable development program. In addition to ecological activities, we want to help wild animals of the area by providing food and setting up some feeders for them. Also we would organize a special activity to gather the food and put some bird houses on the trees (Trsic is known for a number of different bird species). Study part: Workshops and lectures about ecology and environmental protection will be organized. Participants will also get an opportunity to take part in various photography and tourism workshops, where they will learn about use and misuse of the touristic potential of Loznica and Trsic and share experiences from their countries on this topic.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

Volunteers will be accommodated in Konak Cuvarkuca, in beds. This is a place that is hidden from city traffic lights, noise and fast life; people come here to rest and relax. We will have traditional Serbian meals, and there will be options for different vegetarian dishes. This is also the place where participants can meet young people from Trsic and make new friends.

Lage und Freizeit

Trsic is a village in Western Serbia, famous as the birthplace of Vuk Karadzic, the reformist of the Serbian language. The historical part of the village is under the protection of the country and it is the most visited open air museum in Serbia. There is the Vuk's birth house, the Museum of languages and scripts, an outdoor amphitheatre, the House of writers, a gallery and a number of buildings of traditional architecture, characteristic for the 19th century. Beside its cultural heritage, Trsic is surrounded by beautiful hills, forests, streams, meadows and it is a place very much visited by tourists. In agreement with the participants we will organize hiking to a nearby mountain, movie nights, sport activities (basketball and volleyball), camping (hanging out by campfire next to the hotel, organizing musical evening for participants). In addition to these activities, we plan to organize a Youth excursion to Fruska Gora National Park where young people will have the opportunity to socialize with the Youth Office volunteers but also to get to know natural potentials of Serbia and learn about flora and fauna of the national park.

Lage und Freizeit

Titelski breg is the loess plateau that extends for 18km in the province of Vojvodina, in Northern Serbia. It is located near the Tisa river and the town of Titel. Even if the altitude of the “breg” (eng. hill) is only 128m, as Vojvodina is the biggest European plain, when standing on the top of the hill, one has a feeling of standing on an island overlooking the sea. Titel’s confluence of two rivers and the vast surrounding green leave a deep impression. Excursions by boat on the river Tisa will be organized. During free time, the volunteers can stay at Titel’s beautiful beaches and the courts for beach volleyball. Several workshops and lectures will be organized, for the volunteers to gain basic knowledge of the location, Special Nature Reserve "Titelski breg" and its national and international importance.

The Special Nature Reserve “Obedska Bara” is the second oldest protected area in the world (the oldest in Europe) and a wetland of international importance (listed as a Ramsar site and IBA and IPA area). Obedska Bara, a famous ornithological site, is an oxbow lake surrounded with marsh and forest habitats. Wetlands are among the world’s most threatened ecosystems and this one has been gravely degraded, the most important problem being the overgrowing and disappearance of wet meadows. This year it will be full 22 years Young Researchers of Serbia organises the workcamp and the results are wonderful - so far because of our activities several bird species have returned and the working site has the richest bird fauna in the reserve. For the projects in Obedska Bara we have received several national and international awards and we are often mentioned as example of good practice in involving volunteers in nature protection and active measures of conservation.
