Greenlandic Children wants Camp Nuan to give the inhabitants a fantastic, creative, active, and interesting summer. The activities will take place Monday through Friday 12.00-18.00, and will fall into these categories: Music, Dance, Singing, Games, Sports, and Excursions. The volunteers will decide which activities to offer during the camp.
You should expect long days and it is expected that you will participate in all activities. On Saturdays, we will invite the entire township to a social event from 18.00-21.00. This could be a night of music and dancing, teaching each other to play an instrument, cooking food from your home country, movie night, etc.

Sleeping + bathroom facilities:
You will stay in a shared bedroom with other volunteers of the same sex. You will sleep at the local school where kitchen and bathroom facilities will also be available.

Meals + kitchen facilities:
All groceries are transported by ship. Therefore, you should be able to adapt to these local conditions or bring a small stock of goods yourself. It can be challenging to be vegetarian or vegan since many meals in Greenland are based on meat and fish.

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES OR ANY KIND OF INTOXICANTS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AT ANY TIME OR CIRCUMSTANCE. VIOLATION OF THIS RULE WILL LEAD TO IMMEDIATE EXCLUSION FROM THE CAMP.

We will divide the volunteers into cooking and cleaning teams. The group is responsible for shopping, cooking, cleaning, etc. which is also going to take up some of your time every day.

We have been doing work camps every summer since 2014. Greenlandic Children is cooperating with the local community in Nanortalik. Nanortalik is located on the island of Nanortalik at the mouth of the Tasermiut fjord. Nanortalik is the most southern town in Greenland but is still approx. 100 km away northwest of the southernmost point, Cape Farewell (Kap Farvel). The town was founded as a trading post in 1797 but was moved to its current location in 1830. Nanortalik is the smallest of three towns in the Municipality of Kujalleq. 1095 people are living in the town, where 295 are under the age of 19 years.

Fishing and catching have long been the main occupations in Nanortalik, but in recent years, occupations such as tourism and mining have grown, as Greenland's only gold mine can be found near Nanortalik.

Telephone coverage might be scarce, and the internet connection might be bad.

Greenlandic Children carries out social activities in Greenland and Denmark for Greenlandic children and young people in vulnerable life situations. We work to ensure that no Greenlandic child grows up in poverty, abuse, or neglect. Children must be heard and involved, and many more Greenlandic children and young people must have an education.
We emphasize that our efforts are established in close cooperation with local authorities, organizations, professionals, children, and young people and with respect for local needs, wishes, culture, and language.

Greenlandic Children currently has ten ongoing projects in Greenland and Denmark and is present in all Greenlandic municipalities, as well as in Copenhagen, Aarhus, Aalborg, Esbjerg, Randers, and Vejle. The organization has 30 employees and more than 100 volunteers. The projects are financed by public funds, foundations, support, and sponsorship from companies as well as private members and contributors.

In 2018 we received the Crown Prince Couple's Social Prize.

Aangezien je in dit project met kinderen gaat werken, stellen wij het verplicht om een VOG (Verklaring Omtrent Gedrag) aan te vragen.

Clothing:
The average temperatures in Nanortalik in June/July are between 5 and 10 degrees Celsius. Therefore, it is good to have layers of clothing (inner layers preferably of wool), gloves, and headbands.

Language:
It is required that you speak English. The main languages in Nanortalik are Greenlandic and Danish but many children speak English well.

Volunteer profile:
We preferably work from a diversity mindset, but, as the locals have requested outdoor/wilderness activities, disc golf, and climbing we are looking for volunteers with specific skills in these areas. Also, we appreciate volunteers who like to bake and cook with children. We welcome a positive approach to recycling and creativity as well.

We welcome all volunteers, including Greenlandic volunteers, international volunteers, and Danish volunteers.

Het inschrijfgeld voor dit project bedraagt € 345, exclusief € 50 korting voor studenten en jongeren onder de 18.
