Come to our camp if you feel that…
You are a creative, innovative and environmentally conscious young person. This volunteer project seeks to revitalize the community through a transformation process that combines cooperation, creativity and respect for the environment. Your volunteering is a unique opportunity to get involved in meaningful activities that will have a positive impact on the San Fermín neighborhood. This is an international program integrated into the San Fermín Neighborhood Association project in which two German volunteers participate and will be a link between the volunteers in the camp and the San Fermín neighborhood, facilitating the link between all participants.
Why participate in our workcamp?
“Growing Together in San Fermín” is a volunteering project for young people between 18 and 30 years old, from different parts of Spain and abroad. During this period, the volunteer participants will be able to develop personal skills, lead initiatives and work as a team. The young people will be able to learn about new cultures, languages and traditions, as well as meet other people with similar interests. This project will allow you to promote ecological practices, develop your creative capacity and interact with the neighbours in the development of activities for the San Fermín neighbourhood festival.
Tasks specific to the workcam
Your volunteering will be divided into three phases:
• Restoration and cleaning of the Urban Garden Environment: cleaning and reconditioning of the garden. Environmental workshops, incorporating environmental awareness dynamics
• Participation in the San Fermin neighborhood festivities: Volunteers will participate in neighborhood festivities to gather ideas and inspiration for the community mural. They will take notes and conduct interviews with neighbors based on the neighborhood's history. They will schedule artistic activities. This phase of the camp becomes a time of reflection and inspiration for the community mural that will be created in the last phase of the camp.
• Community Mural Creation: Volunteers will design a mural that symbolizes the values, diversity, history and identity of San Fermín, gathered during the festivities. They will participate in collaborative design and painting workshops. Each participant will contribute their vision to the creation of the mural. The creation of this mural will not only be a work of art, but also a symbol of the collaboration and community spirit that characterizes San Fermín.
