Concordia has been organizing international work camps with the city of Clermont-Ferrand since 1993! The city develops participatory projects with residents. Every year, we are present in lively neighborhoods, where residents create shared gardens and local associations organize activities.
This work camp invites you to participate in the life of “ L’Arbre aux Enfants” site by helping to build an outdoor space made entirely of wood.
Local young people will be able to participate in the work camp alongside you and help you discover their area.
İş Tanımı
Come and help create a relaxation area with local associations and young people!
The "Arbre aux Enfants" site is a place for learning about the environment and sustainable development, welcoming children, schools, and associations.
To enhance their outdoor spaces and give their summer an intercultural boost, the activities team is offering young international volunteers the chance to learn carpentry and woodworking techniques to build a wooden terrace and furniture! Other tasks may also be available, such as planting and maintaining green spaces to enhance the site.
You will work with other young people from Clermont-Ferrand and will be able to enjoy the outdoor spaces: picnic tables, barbecue, and bread oven for potential intercultural evenings!
Attention budding DIY enthusiasts: you will learn how to use hand and power tools alongside a technical facilitator.
