Description
A workcamp is a place where people of all races, ideologies, and nationalities live and work together for four weeks on a project organized by Art Outreach Programme. Our workcamps occur monthly and have between 10 and 20 international participants. They volunteer, they socialize and they work with the local people. They are a multicultural, voluntary workforce. That is a workcamp - and it works!
Highlights
Workcamps provide an opportunity for individuals to combine their energies and together address problems vital to our shared global future. Whether working at a children's center, on an environmental project, or a skills workshop, the volunteers' efforts contribute toward world peacemaking.
And, of course, it's fun
