Kuruluş
The idea of this camp was born in october 2023 within a project promoted by local organizations and SCI for the valorisation of cultural heritage and youth participation. The partner organization is the Sanctuary of San Benedetto il Moro, custodian of a site rich in history, partially hidden by time and natural events. The project aims to rediscover and reactivate these spaces through the involvement of international volunteers, offering a unique community experience, based on memory, care and sharing.
İş Tanımı
The volunteers will be engaged in practical activities of clearing out and reorganizing of historical environments that are temporarily inaccessible. The work includes cleaning operations, removal of debris deposited over time and support for the documentation of the place. The activities take place in a simple but fascinating context, with attention to safety. The work will be physically demanding and will require a spirit of adaptation (no more than 6 hours per day).
Konaklama ve Yemek
The volunteers will be hosted inside the Sanctuary, in simple, shared, authentic and evocative monastic cells. A sleeping bag is not required, but you are asked to bring your own towels. A refreshment point will be available with water, tea and coffee. Meals will be provided by the facility staff; Independent use of the kitchen is not foreseen.
Konum ve Serbest Zaman
The camp takes place at the Sanctuary of San Benedetto il Moro, in via Salita Belvedere 3, village of Santa Maria di Gesù, at the foots of Mount Grifone. It is located about 30 minutes from the center of Palermo by public transport, surrounded by nature and rich in history.
Notlar
The camp takes place in a quiet and isolated place. Respect for the spaces of the Sanctuary is required: alcohol is not permitted and shared hours must be observed. No free access to the kitchen; meals are provided. Limited Wi-Fi, variable phone signal. There are no ATMs nearby: bring cash. Bring work shoes, comfortable clothing, towels and, if possible, your driving license. Free time for cultural excursions and moments of sharing.
