Descripción de la actividad

This volunteering activity will be implemented in Arnea, a village in the Aristotelis Municipality(Halkidiki), in the context of the promotion of healthy lifestyle and sports. The group will get to know better the Mediterranean traditions, regarding way of living, food, local products and folklore to get in touch with the Greek cultural heritage which is a fundamental part of the Mediterranean as well as dedicating time to the promotion and organisation of sporting events open to all, in collaboration with the local community. The volunteers will organize events to promote the local food production since Halkidiki is credited as one of the main producers of olives, olive oil and honey in Greece. They will participate in physically demanding activities to help improve the village's spaces, such as painting sidewalks and local buildings, etc.
