It takes 1hour by bus to reach Oropos from Athens. CiA has been organising camps in Oropos every year from 2006 to 2011. After a break of 2 years we are coming back to the community!!! The previous years, volunteers have participated in the renovation of the old prison of Oropos, have renovated playgrounds, participated in intercultural festivals, made public awareness campaigns for environmental issues, racism, human rights and democracy. The old prison is currently hosting different community activities like kindergarten, meals for people facing financial difficulties etc. The dream is to transform the prison into a Museum and a Training Centre on Human Rights and Democracy. WORK: Volunteers will help in setting up and running a festival dedicated to Democracy that will take place between the 24th -27th of July. Volunteers will work in three main areas: a) Prepare the setting of the festival (manual work) b) organising the information dissemination activities for the festival (leaflets, happenings, social media etc) c) organise workshops, performances and other activities before and during the 4days festival. There will be several workshops for the preparation of performances. Additional the volunteers will have the chance to realise creative activities for children, such us: music, theatre games and anything else they are interested in and able to realise. We are asking for very motivated volunteers with communicative skills that play music or juggle. For this workcamp we cooperate with a group of active citizens of the community. Given the general situation (social, political and economic) the exact plan of daily activities will be decided on the spot in open discussion between the local and the international volunteers. Due to the nature of the programme the daily schedule will be flexible with an average of 5 hours per day (depends on festival days and hours), 6 days per week. ACCOMMODATION: Volunteers will be hosted at the premises of the old prison of Oropos. Toilets, showers and cooking facilities are provided but they are very basic. Participants will have most of their meals together with the guests of the social kitchen and sometimes will prepare meals themselves, in shifts.
