Resumo: (Teams volunteering project)
The hosting organization educational eco-community is located in a rural remote area in the south part of Greece. The venture is built with lots of love and (mainly) with natural materials from volunteers, visitors and guests who have visited and stayed with us throughout the last 12 years.

Our mission is to to provide a space where people explore, create and learn from each other and nature. A space in which our actions and interactions are based on our core values of sustainability, mindfulness, synergy, and of course.. hope!

The organization is offering various experiential learning experiences through the Erasmus+ and ESC programs, mainly on the topics of personal growth, community and environment.

We are welcoming young people, educators and local farmers to join forces with us and together contribute towards our wider vision of a society with deep community spirit and involvement in personal, social and environmental growth.

Tarefas: 1) Maintain & Upgrade
On the main pillars is the hands-on activities focusing on the improvement of the place. It can be eco-building, gardening, digging, making wooden constructions, maintaining th existing structures and in general improving the infrastructure, the facilities and the sustainability factors of the place. Besides those, the community will be sharing also practical living tasks like cooking, cleaning, shopping, managing the social media, watering the gardens, feeding animals etc

The tasks vary with the season, and are chosen according to the current needs and the long-term plan.

We plan to have our friends from the eco-community for few days. With them we will go more in depth in the permaculture approach on a theoretical but mostly practical level.

2) Host groups & activities
During your stay here there migh be a couple of groups visiting us for learning activities. Most of these activities are connected in one way or another with the idea of sustainability.

As part of the team, you will be asked to support hosting these groups in several ways and according to your skills.

It can be preparing the place, cooking, delivering workshops and in general supporting the hosting of those groups.

For now, there is a planned visit during May.

3) Outreach the local community
Another essential part of the project is to reach out and connect with the local community and the local initiatives of the surrounding area.

We aim to build strong partnerships and plan common activities in general and during the project.

We will plan these activities based on the current needs, it could be cleaning of the area, supporting local

farmers, visiting local businesses or other eco- communities etc.

We aim to create win-win situations where we contribute to the place we go and on the same time having new learnings on an individual and group level.

4) Leave your own mark and beyond
During your stay you will have the chance to work on a project in a smaller group or alone. Imagine choosing something aligned with the organization's priorities while focusing on a particular element like building, gardening, art, or designing. This is your chance to explore in a deeper level a theme that truly captivates and ignites a
learning spark in you!

One of the coordinator will be there every step of the way supporting you to shape the project into a concrete
plan.

That’s a great opportunity to let your passion shine while contributing into the organization vision!
