This is a new initiative of our organization – a pilot project. The junkyard playground will be a place where kids could learn and create. Volunteers will help to prepare the territory for this playground and as well make some basic elements. We will continue to work on the development of the playground. Out of different materials we are looking to create space for creative activities. We are looking for volunteers willing to work together with kids as they regularly come to the youth house during work camps.
Living conditions are very basic. Volunteers will be accommodated on a rural farm. Sleeping will be in tents provided by the organisers. Toilets and washing facilities will be provided. Cooking will be done by volunteers themselves in the kitchen. Volunteers should bring their sleeping bags. Do not forget some traditional or typical food from your home country for the international evening.
A work camp will be organized in Bārbele village, Bauska municipality. The farm is located in a rural area around 6 km from the village. The nearest bus stop is 3 km away.
The administrative center of the municipality is Bauska located 60 km from Rīga (capital city of Latvia). More information about the region - https://www.tourism.bauska.lv/en/. More about Latvia - https://www.latvia.travel/en.
During a work camp, we will have possibilities to visit different cultural and historical places. Volunteers will have a possibility to organize intercultural events, etc.
The youth association Jaunatne smaidam / Youth for Smile is a non-profit non-governmental youth organization established in 2005.
Our Mission - We are a strong and values-based youth organization that gives opportunities to create, experience, and be together.
Our goals are:
Creating - enabling local communities to learn, participate, and self-realize;
Experience - to provide experience at the local and international level to promote the personal development of young people;
Being together - creating an environment where young people develop their competencies for the growth of the local community.
The tasks of the organization are:
1. To develop and promote youth initiatives, creating favorable conditions for their intellectual and creative development;
2. To provide young people with the opportunity to acquire the skills, knowledge, and competencies necessary for life through non-formal education;
3. Provide young people with an opportunity to make good use of their leisure time;
4. Provide young people with access to relevant information for their development needs.
Our target groups.
Our main target group is children and youth (age group 7-30) in the Bauska region. We are working for all communities as such.
We are asking do not reserve any travel till 05.06.2023. We confirm camp no later than 6 weeks before. If there will be fewer than 8 applications we have to cancel the camp, because we can not cover the costs of it.
