Since 1993, Concordia has been organizing international workcamps with the city of Clermont-Ferrand, which shows how well this partnership works. The city has elaborated participative projects in cooperation with the local population. Every year, we come back to active neighbourhoods, where inhabitants created familial gardens and non-profit organizations develop their activities.
This workcamp offers you the opportunity to participate in the life of the La Gauthiere district, where several Concordia workcamps have already been hosted to build wooden street furniture. This neighbourhood is undergoing a major urban transformation. You will be welcomed in the Nelson Mandela Space, which is located in a wooded park. This local structure is a place of cultural diffusion and popular education. Its organisation is based on three areas of activity: socio-cultural activities, accommodation for associations and a concert hall. You are expected by the team of animation of the local space that will provide a room for your bag and meals. Local young people will be able to take part in the workcamp alongside and help you discover their area.
