Building a Sustainable Future

Описание
Join a 14-day ESC Volunteering Team project organized by Interpreta Natura in the heart of Les Rodanes Natural Park (Vilamarxant, Valencia). A team of 12 European volunteers will live and work together at the Bassa Barreta Hostel to foster local sustainability and biodiversity conservation. Participants will actively engage in hands-on habitat restoration, pond maintenance, invasive plant control, tree planting, and natural space cleanups. Additionally, the team will raise awareness in the local community through an information stand at the town market and by designing visual campaigns for wildfire and pollution prevention. This short-term experience offers direct contact with nature, intercultural living, and positive community action.
Настаняване, хранене и транспорт
Volunteers will stay at the municipal Bassa Barreta Hostel, located in PNM Les Rodanes (Vilamarxant). Accommodation is shared (2 beds per room) with communal bathrooms, kitchen, and living spaces, offering a eco-friendly lifestyle with basic comforts. Food is fully provided: groceries will be bought twice a week, and volunteers will cook together in rotation. Round-trip transport from the volunteer's home to the project venue is covered according to ESC distance guidelines (paid upfront by the volunteer and reimbursed after the end of the project). Pocket money will be paid weekly every Friday
