Location

La Llacuna is a municipality in the region of Anoia, with an area of 52.25 Km2 and a population of 957 inhabitants divided into three nuclei and farmhouses: La Llacuna, Rofes, Torrebusqueta and the neighborhoods of Vilates, Pollina , Balta, Clot de les Barraques and Ventanell. The economic activity that predominates in La Llacuna are the services and the rural tourism. Anyone who visits La Llacuna, will be able to discover the great attractiveness of the zone as much at natural level as patrimonial. The latter includes the fountains, the Castle of Vilademajer, the old town, the oak of Anocsa, the remains of the Cistercian monastery of Ancosa, Sant Antoni de les Vilates, Sant Josep de Rofes, the cave paintings of Valldecerves, the Iberian village, among others. Regarding the leisure, the organization understands this time as controlled time, but not directed by the educational team. We believe that this time is very important as young people enhance their creativity and see the evolution of the group and the degree of cohesion they can reach. Various materials are usually added: balls, cards... During this time we will not carry out any directed activity that requires your attention and it will be when you take the opportunity to strengthen the young relationship / educational team on an affective level. In this way we will have a space where young people feel close to the adult referent outside the family environment.

Without a completely defined urban structure, Grullos mixes a set of buildings that respond to different periods and styles: centuries-old mansions, old hórreos and paneras, Indian houses and modern constructions blend into an environment that still preserves the rural essence. The relief is undulating, alternating peaks with small valleys through which the Nalón and its tributaries flow, highlighting the Dele and the Candamín. Candamo is the oldest town in Asturias. This is evidenced by the famous cave of San Román de Candamo, where the Paleolithic man left beautiful samples of his extraordinary art. In the surroundings, there are several archaeological sites of interest to visitors and scholars.

Still, other activities for local social animation will be proposed such as games in English for children at the swimming pool, visiting and interacting elderly, supporting a local animal shelter, or helping to clean litter from nature. The youth council of Pedrzuela saw the need to train, raise awareness and sensitize the young people of the municipality on the importance of developing artistic activities, conserving the natural heritage of the area, as young people in the municipality are often unaware of the diversity and the natural patrimony of Pedrezuela. The aim of the work camp is to collaborate with the town hall in this task; to teach and sensitize the young people through mural art and other activities to develop the idea of citizenship. The volunteers will take a very active role in the development of the project. They can be creative and bring in their own ideas and knowledge.

We will still may have some space for creating workshops for the local kids from 3 to 12 years old as we did previous years creating games and to be the first contact in English comunication for those kids that they don´t have opportunity to learn and practice English language.

The municipality of Talarn is located on the right bank of the Noguera Pallaresa and surrounds the town of Tremp. Mainly flat around the water of the Sant Antoni reservoir, this is an ideal spot for the practice of water sports. The village of Talarn was formed on the top of a hill, sheltered by the old castle which occupied the highest position. This village was an old medieval fortress, with walls, towers and gates to the closed village. The streets keep the appearance of the 17th century, the time of its splendour, with some noble houses such as the Baró d'Eroles property. It is also remarkable the fountain of Caps, located in the outskirts of the village and built at the beginning of the 19th century. Other places of interest are the abandoned village of Castell d'Encús, where you can see the ruins of the towns as well as the old wine vats dug in the rocks. This area produces high quality wines named Castell d'Encús, with Costers del Segre DO. Salàs has been historically an important village in the region, in the 14th century it was already authorised to celebrate an annual cattle fair which has been a reference throughout the centuries. Nowadays, this fair has become the Remembrance Day of the Salàs Fair in the beginning of November. Salàs de Pallars has kept its medieval features and still conserves three gates from this period. Nowadays, thanks to the work carried out to valorise its historical and ethnological heritage, Salàs has a remarkable exhibition of museum-shops, which reproduce the atmosphere in shops as they were in the past.

This heritage preservation and restoration culture will have a direct impact on the conservation of the landscape, one of the objectives proposed in the action. Another objective is youth employability. The arqueology is a new employment site, and this action, which involves a training part, in addition to its inclusion in the Archeology Daily Book, will allow young people access the world of work through this discipline.

Based on the Self-protection Plan against Covid-19, this activity will be carried out in two well-differentiated phases, with groups of a maximum of 7 volunteers, each one led by an archaeologist: Phase 1.

The environmental association la Sínia was born in 1997 with the main purpose of offering services and activities related with promoting conservation and restoration knowledge about natural, cultural and historical heritage of baix Gaià territory. In 2009 they started to manage the river zone of Gaià and its surroundings. Their tasks as an association are: 1. Restoration and conservation of river zones. 2. Study and recuperation of its biodiversity. 3. Promoting environmental volunteering though many activities they organize monthly. The association is formed by a multidisciplinary and experimented team in environmental education, leisure in the nature and conservation of the territory and biodiversity.

Location

El Catllar is a municipality in the county of Tarragonès in Catalonia, Spain. The town of El Catllar has an old town centre crowned by the Castell del Catllar which sits on the remains of a fortified settlement from the Iron Age (7th-5th centuries BC) on a hill overlooking one of the meanders of the river Gaià. Although written documentation places its beginnings in the 11th century, when the river was the border between the Catalan counties and the kingdom of Al-Andalus, archaeological excavations indicate that the origins of the fortification date back to the Muslim period or even earlier. Fourteen km towards the coast is one of the last forests stretching along the sea in Catalonia, part of which is a small nature reserve (under the Tamarit-Punta de la Móra Special Plan for Environmental and Landscape Protection). Also on the coast, it is home to the remains of the Roman Villa of Els Munts, which is part of a larger UNESCO World Heritage Site. During the afternoons, volunteers will participate in complementary and leisure time activities: workshops, fauna observation, excursions, debates and other activities that will be prepared between all the volunteers. There will be the option to organize extra activities with extra cost depending on what the volunteers want to do. For example, an excursion to Port Aventura World Park.

Work

The aim of this camps is that volunteers communicate with children in English, to encourage them to overcome the fear of speaking in a foreign language through non-formal educational methods and setting. In first two days of the workcamp participants will get a formation by Fundacion Cruz de los Angeles in order get to know the local environment and to understand the legal context of working with children under state protection (that includes signing confidentiality contracts and to comply with some restrictions). Children we're going to work with are aged from 6 to 18, therefore our group will be split into two non-fixed teams, rotate and organize different activities according to the kids age group. We will prepare activities and materials in English on different topics, such as archaeology, music, food, animals. With the older kids – teenagers, we will spend time in the afternoons, and mornings are for the younger kids.
