Campo di volontariato
SEEDS 27 009. Environment & Photography – Equinox
Reykjavik, ISLANDA
Attività principali
During this camp, participants will explore global and local environmental issues while developing
their photography skills. If you are interested in climate change, sustainability and waste management, and
enjoy photography, this project is for you!
While developing artistic and technical photography skills, you will be focusing on environmental and
sustainability issues through non-formal activities such as workshops, discussions, presentations and visits
facilitated by SEEDS. One of our aims is to help consumers and travellers better understand the environmental impact of their choices. You will visit local environmental and conservation projects, which may include
hands-on activities or guided visits, such as outdoor cleanup tasks, nature exhibitions or Icelandic museums.
Some of these activities are dependent on weather conditions, as on the availability of our partners.
You will also have time to put the theory about photography into practice while exploring the city. Through
practical exercises and workshops, participants will improve both the artistic and technical aspects of
photography, including composition, storytelling and photographing nature and urban environments.
Photography will be used not only as a creative skill, but also as a way to raise awareness of environmental
issues and encourage participants to reflect on the relationship between people and nature. At the end of the
camp, participants will select their favourite photographs for an online exhibition at SEEDS’ social media
channels. Participants should bring their digital cameras, lenses, tripods and laptops if possible.

Scopri REYKJAVIK
Reykjavik is a dynamic, modern city that lives in harmony with nature, using renewable energy sources. The world s northernmost capital bridges the Atlantic, between Europe and North America. Reykjavik is spread across a peninsula with a panoramic view of the mountains and the Atlantic. It is an international city with a lively cosmopolitan cultural scene surrounded by beautiful nature.
Requisiti
Participation fee EUR 450 (Euros). The fee can either be transferred in advance via bank transfer, or paid in cash on arrival.
Organizzatore
SEEDS’ programme combines learning, sharing and hands-on activities. On top of that you get to know Iceland
and its culture while having fun, exploring the city, its attractions and stunning nature, which you can experience in possible excursions. Participants should prepare to share environmental issues from their countries and be
ready to spend time outdoors walking medium distances (up to 1,5 hours) during activities and sightseeing.
Note this project is a learning/sharing camp and not a standard workcamp. This project has a smaller volunteer
work part and puts a bigger emphasis on the personal learning process than on the community impact.
SEEDS will organise a night photography and aurora hunting workshop in the city or in the vicinity of Reykjavík.
Northern lights are a natural phenomenon depending on solar activity and meteorological conditions, so we
cannot guarantee you will see northern lights, but the night photography workshop will be organised anyway
