Logi, mad og transport
The project will take place in Oberhausen, a city of industrial heritage between the rivers Emscher and Ruhr in the Ruhr Area, located close to the Netherlands, Cologne and Düsseldorf. Despite or maybe because of being a rather small and poor city in this huge metropolitan area, Oberhausen's (sub-)cultural landscape is quite rich. Volunteers will be accommodated in separate apartments, conveniently located a short walk from the Central Station, where kitev is housed. Each volunteer will receive a monthly allowance that includes pocket-, food- and transport money.
