INTERCULTURE IN CONFISCATED LAND
INFORMAGIOVANI APS ETS
Caltanissetta, Italie
Description
The volunteers will support activities at ‘Girasoli Land’, managed by I Girasoli ETS Association and located in Caltanissetta. Over the 14 days, the programme will balance practical activities, such as taking care of the vegetable garden and harvesting olives, with days dedicated to visits, experiences, networking and socialising.
The volunteers will visit a local olive oil mill to learn how olive oil is produced and will create small souvenirs made with extra virgin olive oil, as well as engaging in networking with local organisations that manage assets and land confiscated from the Mafia, addressing issues related to the anti-Mafia movement, the rule of law, and social and environmental justice.
A central element of the whole experience will be the cultural exchange, enriched by the presence of several beneficiaries of the I Girasoli ETS Association with migrant backgrounds who will play an active part in this project.
Modalités d'hébergement, de restauration et de transport
Volunteers will stay in a house equipped with a 6-bed room and a 4-bed room, ensuring shared but comfortable living arrangements. Meals will be prepared on-site, with access to a kitchen and refrigerator for use as needed. The association will be responsible for purchasing groceries, taking care of specific dietary needs such as vegetarian preferences, allergies, or intolerances. The house also includes a Wi-Fi connection to support volunteers during their stay.
