WORK

The group of volunteers will be responsible for cleaning and tidying up 6 green areas in different neighborhoods of the city by sorting waste with appropriate equipment. Peers from the city will also be involved in the activities. The activities will take place at 2 times of the day: morning 9am-12:30pm and afternoon 3pm-6pm. During the lunch break, get-to-know-you moments will be organized with the different entities involved in the project (ex. International lunches, picnics in the park, etc.) Planned a meeting with the subjects of the different neighborhoods involved in this activity at the end of the camp to show the result and tell about the experience.

Accommodation and food

Volunteers will be accommodated in two different flats, each sleeping five people, equipped with a kitchen and bathrooms. Breakfast and dinner will be self-catered by the volunteers, who will be able to use the kitchen in their accommodation. Lunches will be organised according to the programme, either as packed lunches at the camp site or hosted by local associations and/or organisations. It will be possible to move around the city from the accommodation to the camp either on foot, by bus or by bike.

For those interested in visiting other cities, Parma has a strategic position that allows it to be in the centre between Milan and Bologna; in an hour by train it is possible to arrive in both cities.
