Children’s Nature Summer Camps
GAIA
Ranilug, Kosovo * UN resolution
Deskrizzjoni
ONE place left for a volunteer from an EU country.
This will be the 3rd summer that GAIA is organizing environmental summer camps for children from the local community. Ranilug is a rural municipality, consisting of 13 villages, predominantly populated with the Serbian minority. Children in Ranilug do not have many opportunities to participate in extracurricular activities, in particular about the environment or nature. Our summer camps provide a unique opportunity for around 40 children to learn about nature and environmentally responsible behaviour. The activities include diverse outdoor workshops on biodiversity, camping, orientation and so forth. Free time is used for sports, games, art and excursions to the mountains. There will be two age groups (7 to 10 and 11 to 14), each in the camp for 5 days.
Activities are taking place from 9 am to 4 pm, children sleep at home. One or two overnight might be organised with the older group if they show interest.
Akkomodazzjoni, ikel u arranġamenti tat-trasport
Volunteers will be accommodated at GAIA’s property in Bozevce village. The accommodation is organized in a house with 4 rooms, bathroom, small kitchen and composting toilets. Transport to the location where the activities will take place will be organised every day. Volunteers will spend around 7 hours at the venue of the environmental camps. During activities we will arrange two meals for volunteers and children. Other meals will be prepared by the volunteers and GAIA staff in Bozevce. Food will be vegetarian/vegan. Volunteers should take sleeping bags for 1-2 nights of camping with children.
