Jóvenes y Bioconstrucción en Ecoaldeas

Beschrijving van het project

Nowadays, the youth is looking more and more in the ecovillage experience for answers to the challenges that the global world brings up to them. The ecovillage movement aims to connect with nature and human needs for health, integration and coherent vision of the future and its objectives are sustainability and resilience. Los Portales, founded in 1984 and located in Castilblanco de los Arroyos (Seville, Spain), is one of the oldest and stablest ecovillages in Spain. Since 2011, young people from all over the world have come looking for an experience that meets these challenges, and then brought this seed back to their places of origin. The aim of this experience is to make young people aware of the importance of living in healthy self-construction spaces, providing them with tools and experiences that will enable them in the future to continue training or experiment with what they have learnt, in order to intervene in situations that may require this knowledge.

Regelingen voor accommodatie, eten, en vervoer

As a hosting organization we have a house with shared rooms with wardrobes, shared bathroom with hot water, kitchen and common lounge. The house has drinking water in all taps, electricity and wood heating. In Los Portales we do all the meals together. Breakfast usually starts at 7:30. Lunch at 13:30 and dinner at 20:00. All the food we cook is mostly organic and vegetarian and we give priority to cooking with garden ingredients. When we ear meat, there is always a vegetarian option. We organise transport to the village and buses to Seville.
