Kuruluş
The working camp was born from the collaboration of IBO Italia with the Association I Ragazzi di San Lorenzo Bellizzi (IRSLB) an association that takes its name from the same country as the fundamental objectives are the safeguarding of the old and the development of the new of the territory.San Lorenzo is a small city located within the Pollino Park, where a large part of the economy depends on pensions, small businesses, restaurants and seasonal summer tourist jobs. It is also affected by a strong depopulation and therefore aging of the remaining population, like many villages in southern Italy.An important resource for the place is the maintenance of natural resources and the recovery of ancient productions and skills. The recovery of these traditional activities is very important for the city in terms of economic, social and environmental balance.For several years IRSLB, in collaboration with the Municipality, has been working to combat the abandonment of rural areas. More and more olive groves are being abandoned in the municipal area because the elderly owners are no longer able to take care of them, due to lack of interest, others have emigrated, others have died.One of the goals of the field will be in fact the recovery of abandoned olive groves according to the principles of Agroforestry and syntropic agriculture and the enhancement of the ancient local arts.Furthermore, a Biodiversity project will be activated to map the biodiversity of the surroundings of the Pollino Park. The works will be carried out together with IRSLB as administration and with local associations (civil protection, Manola SanLo OdV, civil protection group, Museum of Rural Art).
