Keen on green (Environmental education in practice)

Descrizione dell'attività

The ecoadventure center Divočina can be understood as a place for sharing, meeting, trying alternative technologies, recycling, exchanging ideas, learning languages and protecting biodiversity. The space we have created has an ecological, community and social dimension. The ecocentre and community garden is a place where people of all ages and social classes meet for workshops on sustainable lifestyle, gardening, lectures or an evening campfire. Furthermore, we prepare interactive excursions and workshops for kindergartens, primary and secondary schools so that children and young people can experience ecological approaches and technologies and understand the importance of protecting biodiversity in natural gardens and edible forests. We are searching for three volunteers to help us organize eco-adventure workshops and camps for children and teach English using fun and informal teaching methods, focused primarily on conversation. https://www.united-vision.org/blog/causes/keen-on-green

Alloggio, vitto e trasporto

Accommodation is provided right in the eco-adventure center Divočina. Each volunteer has their own private room and shared bathroom. The kitchen is shared with all the people in the centre, who cook vegetarian dishes together. Internet is available, as well as bicycles for commuting around the town. In case of commuting to a greater distance, the volunteer is reimbursed the fare.

Formazione durante l'attività

We provide on-arrival training for the volunteers. We introduce them into the local specifics and provide them with practical information about our centre, planned activates, our partner organizations and about Malešov (village where the centre is based). We also organize regular meetings, plan activities together and provide feedback and guidance. We try to involve the volunteers into the local community, insure their proper adaptation into the work and evaluate their role within the project. We also provide them space for developing their own project depending on their interests.

Profilo del partecipante

Most of the activities in the center take place outside and with people. The opportunity is therefore ideal for social people who like to spend time outdoors, in nature, with people of all ages and children. Furthermore for people interested in permaculture, community garden, natural architecture or ecological practices. We welcome everyone with team spirit, empathy, autonomy, flexibility, responsibility, patience, respect for different cultures and traditions, openness and willingness to learn new things
