Project: "Sound Voice Music"
You will creatively explore the role of music and languages in the concentration camp. Together with the other participants, you will go in search of songs, voices and sounds - in the historical concentration camp and in today's memorial site. Under the guidance of an artist, you will develop your own sound snippets, record voices and sounds, and write song lyrics and music. Together you will discuss how history should be remembered today. In a joint performance you will present your international perspectives on commemoration.
__________
Study part:
The history of Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp and the Soviet Special Camp are the focus of this part of the study. You will learn about the life stories of former prisoners who were interned here from all over Europe. Why were they persecuted? What was their daily life in the camp like and how did they try to survive? Visits to exhibitions, memorials and museums in Oranienburg and Berlin as well as discussions with experts are also part of the program.

Jews, and during the war especially people from occupied countries were imprisoned, forced

The Sachsenhausen Memorial was one of the largest concentration camps in Germany and was built in 1936 near Berlin. More than 200,000 people from all over Europe were imprisoned here by the Nazi SS. The prisoners were forced to perform inhumane labor, and thousands died or were murdered. After the liberation in 1945, the Soviet secret service established Special Camp No.7/No.1 on the site for the internment of former Nazi functionaries and political opponents. Today the memorial is a place of remembrance, learning and research.

Progetto
In adempimento all'incarico conferito dall'ente gestore del Parco, obiettivo del campo di volontariato è dare seguito al laboratorio di spiaggia chiamato La Spiaggia di Nemo, realizzato nell’estate 2020 e definitivamente attrezzato dal Comune nel corso dell'ultimo inverno, migrando l'esperienza alla limitrofa spiaggia della Duna Grande. Qui verranno realizzate infrastrutture elementari di tutela e azioni per aggregare e informare/educare la comunità di spiaggia. dove si sperimenteranno forme di comunicazione e coinvolgimento della comunità dei frequentatori/fruitori per espandere e diffondere l’esperienza e la coscienza, e si realizzeranno le strutture minime di conservazione
Lavoro
I ragazzi divisi in quattro gruppi a rotazione effettueranno:
1) il monitoraggio generale del parco, in particolare dell’impatto turistico e le verifiche alle infrastrutture esterne,
2) il monitoraggio naturalistico della spiaggia del Pizzo per rilevare la eventuale nidificazione della tartaruga comune Caretta caretta e/o la custodia e monitoraggio del nido se intervenuto nel frattempo,
3) Realizzeranno inoltre le infrastrutture leggere di protezione della scarpata dunare,
4) azioni preventive e di supporto all’AIB.
Luogo
Il campo si svolgerà all’interno del Parco Regionale Isola S. Andrea, Litorale di Punta Pizzo, una delle aree costiere più integre e suggestive del Salento. Il tratto di litorale è caratterizzato da un susseguirsi di cale e tratti sabbiosi e di bassa scogliera calcarenitica, con alle spalle un’ampia pineta litorale e tratti di macchia a ginepro e sclerofille ricca di specie subendemiche come lo spinapollici.
Nella parte retrodunale è presente un’area umida, soggetta in passato a bonifica, di grande valore per l’equilibrio idrogeologico dell’area, per l’effetto benefico sul clima, per il ruolo fondamentale che questa zona svolge per i tantissimi uccelli che vi trovano rifugio, sostentamento e siti di nidificazione. E’ un’area che ha una ricchezza avifaunistica inimmaginabile, registrando la presenza del falco di palude, di aironi cinerini, aironi rossi, garzette; è inoltre il principale sito di nidificazione in Italia del rarissimo gabbiano corso e fondamentale luogo di sosta nel corso delle migrazioni di moltissime specie.
Il centro storico di Gallipoli è tra i più pittoreschi e interessanti del sud Italia, ben tenuto e frequentatissimo dal turismo italiano e internazionale. Racchiude tra l’altro ben 12 chiese di confraternita, una parrocchiale e la cattedrale, dedicata alla protettrice S. Agata; musei, biblioteche e due frantoi ipogei (dei più di 40 un tempo attivi) restaurati e visitabili. Anche i centri dell’entroterra vantano musei messapici (Alezio), paleontologici (Parabita) e della civiltà contadina (Tuglie); chiese paleocristiane, bizantine e siti archeologici sono numerosi sul territorio e richiamano studiosi e campus di studio di rilevanza mondiale. Frequenti sono gli eventi per la valorizzazione della cultura locale, in particolare la musica e la cucina tipica, realizzati dalle associazioni e promossi dagli enti locali, dalla provincia e dalla regione, alcuni dei quali verranno realizzati dai partecipanti al nostro campo di volontariato.

During the youth camp kids participate in different workshops about health, safety, culture and enjoy climbing and hiking activities.

Come and volunteer in a summer village for teenagers and young families! Over 2 weeks of different activities await you while you assist in a summer camp for teenagers and young families near Cologne! The summer village will have started on the 26th of June and several weeks of program for children and young people with and without disabilities have already happened when your camp starts. Your project starts with the arrival of a teenager group aged 12 to 15 and a week full of activities with and for the young participants. Your job will be to help with different types of workshops, where the youngsters can try out different types of sport, creative activities, do arts and crafting or simply chill or play games. The second week of the program is dedicated to families with (small) children.
Aside from helping with the program, there will also be “backstage” tasks, such as going grocery shopping or cleaning. Another responsibility is the night duty: Since the participants are under-age, someone always needs to stay awake. Don’t worry, you won’t need to stay up the whole night and you won’t need to do it alone. It can easily turn into a nice long campfire-evening with friends. It is very important to the local team that you feel and become part of one big group of teamers.
Luogo
The camp village is situated on a meadow surrounded by trees a bit outside of the town of Bergheim. In Bergheim, you can find different shops and cafés, and Bergheim itself is only 20km away from Cologne. On your days off you can therefore visit Cologne, which is the fourth most populous city of Germany, famous for its cathedral and the Roman-Germanic museum. You can also go on trips to other nearby towns, for example to Bonn.
Alloggio
You will sleep in big group tents on the camp village site. Camp mats will be provided, but please bring your own sleeping bag! There are showers and sanitary facilities available, but the accommodation itself is quite basic. There will be no need for cooking since you will be eating together with the local team and the participants, so everything will be provided, but of course it is expected that you may help with cleaning and so on.
Requisiti e materiali
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, all volunteers need to be either fully vaccinated (2 to 3 shots of one of the following vaccines: BioNtech/Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca or Johnson&Johnson) or recovered (date of infection must be at least 28 days old and max 90 days old).

This is followed up by two weeks of kids-program. After the end of the volunteering team there will be also a week of camping for teenagers (12-15 years old), then followed by a weekend for adolescents (14+) and finally a week of family camp. You can find the camp village schedule here: www.woanders.org/zeltstadt/

It is a project aimed mostly towards children and teens with fewer opportunities but it is open to people from all backgrounds. Priority is given to participants from nearby communities. Since 2020 we successfully support this project with small groups of international volunteers and the local team is looking forward to meet new international friends.

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.
