Mreža udruga Zagor
ZABOK, Croatia
Description
The main focus of this activity is to combine digital tools and environmental awareness through solidarity, cooperation, and skills sharing within the group. We are looking for 6 international volunteers who would like to take part in a variety of activities, including:
- intercultural gatherings with locals
- creative workshops (including learning more about upcycling)
- writing articles for the youth magazine Mla-dost.dobro
- creating podcasts on topics relevant to young people
- environmental clean-up actions
- volunteering activities in rural areas across the county
- photography and video production focused on volunteering and environmental topics
- skills-sharing workshops on ecology, digitalization, civil society, volunteering, and related topics
- planning, organizing, and implementing youth-focused activities.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
The volunteers will be accommodated in Zabok, close to the Zagor organization. The accommodation consists of two separate rooms – one for female volunteers and one for male volunteers. They will share a bathroom, dining room, living room, and kitchen. Transportation will not be necessary, as all activities are within walking distance. Food expenses will be covered by the project.
Training during the activity
This is a unique opportunity to contribute to meaningful community initiatives, meet people from different countries, develop valuable new skills, and engage in intercultural learning within an international environment.
