Progetto
Il campo si svolge nello splendido scenario dell’Area Marina Protetta Penisola del Sinis – Isola di Mal di Ventre, istituita nel 1997 a tutela di questo territorio costiero delicato quanto prezioso. Il comune di Cabras, gestore dell’Area Marina Protetta, da anni è impegnato in un importante percorso di conservazione della biodiversità e della tutela del mare, dedicando risorse allo sviluppo di un turismo sostenibile e responsabile, puntando quindi sull’uso rispettoso del mare e del territorio da una parte, e sulla valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale e archeologico dall’altra. I campi di volontariato che Legambiente realizza quest’estate, in collaborazione con l’AMP e il comune, si inseriscono in questo contesto; gli obiettivi sono di sensibilizzare gli abitanti e i turisti a una fruizione corretta dell'ambiente marino e costiero, e di migliorare l’offerta di turismo sostenibile sull’isola, attraverso la sorveglianza dell’area protetta, il monitoraggio e la pulizia dai rifiuti.
Lavoro
I volontari garantiranno un presidio costante dell’AMP e svolgeranno le seguenti attività: pulizia delle coste dalla presenza di eventuali rifiuti spiaggiati, monitoraggio e catalogazione dei rifiuti raccolti secondo la normativa europea del Beach Litter; informazione e sensibilizzazione dei turisti sulla corretta fruizione della spiaggia; piccoli lavori di decorazione e abbellimento degli spazi dell'ostello come pannelli autocostruiti sulla corretta gestione della differenziata, delle aree comuni e dell'orto.
Luogo
A ovest di Cabras, la penisola del Sinis, si protende nel mare con una costa bassa e rocciosa, estendendosi nell’entroterra con un altopiano brullo e una bassa macchia mediterranea odorosa di rosmarino e di ginepro. Alla scogliera si alternano anche spiagge memorabili: a nord di capo Mannu le dune e le sabbie di Is Arenas sono coperte da una storica pineta, mentre a sud la costa si articola in cale di sabbia, promontori rocciosi e stagni. A sud delle suggestive scogliere di Su Tingiosu si trovano alcuni gioielli naturalistici, le spiagge di granuli quarzosi (del tutto simili a chicchi di riso) di Mari Ermi e Is Arutas. Alle spalle delle spiagge, di grande interesse naturalistico lo stagno di Cabras, e la laguna di Mistras, mentre di grandissima suggestione sono le rovine della città, prima nuragica poi fenicia e infine romana, di Tharros, situata proprio in riva al mare
Stazione ferroviaria di Oristano (orari da definire)
Attività formative
I volontari saranno coinvolti in attività di formazione tenute dai responsabili di Legambiente e dal personale dell’AMP sulle caratteristiche naturalistiche e storico-culturali del territorio, e sull'avifauna e fauna selvatica del territorio.

Poverty is a broad-term that describes many circumstances where
people lack resources such as money, housing, food, clothing, jobs, and
suffer physically, socially, and emotionally from this material
deprivation.
Poverty describes a standard of living where a person is unable to
afford even a basic diet. International definitions of poverty rely on the
classification of the poverty level, which is a level of income below
which a person cannot afford to buy all the resources required to live.
Poverty eradication encompasses the will and strategies to stop all
people from living in poverty.
The focus will be on education, training and gender sensitivity. Inter
cultural exchange is aimed at enabling people to put global awareness
and intercultural learning into practice.
This is enhanced through creating awareness through learning themes
on global issues.
In so doing it will strengthen participants’ skills in working in
community-based organizations actively involved in efforts to alleviate
poverty.

The former women's concentration camp Ravensbrück was built in 1939 near the small town of Fürstenberg/Havel. Until its liberation in April 1945, over 120,000 women and children, 20,000 men and 1,000 underage young women from the so-called "Uckermark Youth Protection Camp" were imprisoned there. The prisoners came from more than 40 nations. They had to perform forced labor in various sectors, e.g. for SS factories or the Siemens company. Their daily lives were marked by hunger, mistreatment and poor hygienic conditions. Tens of thousands of prisoners were killed. Today, the Ravensbrück Memorial preserves traces and records, promotes remembering and research, and creates a place for active learning and encounters. Every year, international work camps are organized in cooperation with the memorial.

This camp allows volunteers to learn about global and local environmental issues through non-formal activities such as workshops, discussions, presentations and visits, as well as to contribute directly to environment protection by joining outdoor cleanup tasks. These cleanup tasks may be arranged in partnership with the abovementioned organisations or organised solely by SEEDS. We aim to also involve the local community, so some of our events may be open to the public. We hope participants will learn how to plan and do their own trash hunting projects back at home. This project is based on similar activities around the world, where outstanding results have been achieved with volunteers. One of the two options below is also included in this camp as a hands-on volunteering activity day: A day trip combining a visit to the Hellisheioi geothermal power plant, a trash hunt in the area; and the Hot River Hike, a hike up a valley filled with hot springs where one can bathe. A day trip to the Reykjanes peninsula, combined with a coastal cleanup in the area. All the activities are dependent on conditions such as weather and availability of our partners. This camp combines learning, sharing, hands-on work and fun. No previous experience is needed. Volunteers should prepare to share environmental issues from their countries and be ready to spend time outdoors, walk medium distances during the cleanups, as during other activities and sightseeing. As a part of the project happens outdoors, volunteers should be ready to adapt and be flexible with the work and free-time schedule, as depending on the changeable weather, we may not be able to perform some of the activities (as) planned.

Getbol(Tidal Flats) in Shinan has been appointed as a World heritage in 2022. This site exhibits a complex combination of geological, oceanographic and climatologic conditions that have led to the development of coastal diverse sedimentary systems. It is very necessary to promote Getbol further to the public and local youth to raise public awareness about the value of Getbol and World Heritage.
This project will focus on raising public awareness of the value of World Heritage itself and preserving Getbol and the island environment by cleaning the coast and making promotional statues. People will be exposed to Partrimonito and World Heritage campaign and local youth will get education about them through volunteer activities.

Lavoro
In the forests of the Landes, come take care of a spring and of a small church!
With this new partnership, Concordia is planning to rearrange the space around a natural spring and to restore the wall of a church of unusual charm, classified as a historical monument, all this on the magnificent site of the Airial located in the heart of the Commune of Saugnac et Muret.
For the spring, which is an underground stream that rises not far from the church, the work will consist of creating stone steps to facilitate access and building a wooden structure to protect it and thus create a signpost for visitors and pilgrims.
On the church side, you will be responsible for restoring a low wall to give it a charm similar to that of the church, with exposed stones and lime or sand plaster.
Throughout the project, a technical facilitator will accompany you to teach you the techniques needed to carry out the work!

Organizzatore
Saugnac et Muret is a small town of about 1,200 inhabitants which has placed democracy, solidarity, preservation of the environment and the enhancement of the natural, material and immaterial heritage at the heart of its project. It has a very rich heritage: church, chapel, fountain, mill ruins, the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, a resin vat, a bread oven and the village of Saugnac. The inhabitants of the commune have already taken part in a rehabilitation workcamp. The aim of this volunteer workcamp is to meet and exchange ideas between the volunteers and the local population.
Activities and intercultural exchanges will be coordinated by the town hall and the Concordia team!
