YOUCONNECT

Volunteers will carry out a set of clearly defined tasks divided into environmental, agricultural, educational and intercultural activities. Environmental activities include participation in plogging actions, involving litter collection during walking routes, as well as the cleaning and maintenance of hiking trails, rural paths and surrounding natural areas. Volunteers will also take part in simple painting and improvement interventions in community spaces identified during the camp, in cooperation with the local community.Agricultural work will focus on supporting the cleaning and maintenance of agricultural land and participating in simple seasonal harvesting activities, adapted to the period in which the workcamp takes place.Educational and intercultural activities play a central role in the camp and include intercultural dynamics among participants, cultural sharing sessions that promote intercultural dialogue, and the Youth Assembly of the Camp, which provides a regular space for collective decision-making regarding daily activities. Volunteers will also participate in an Intercultural Laboratory, sharing habits, customs, traditions and daily routines from the different countries represented. In addition, they will take part in participatory local mapping activities, exploring the surrounding area to identify land uses, social dynamics and community spaces, which will be recorded on a collective paper map. Finally, volunteers will be actively involved in the co-creation of youth-oriented actions, contributing to the practical design of future activities for the hosting organisation through participatory and collaborative non-formal education methodologies, supporting the organisations action plan and long-term impact on youth.
