- Teach Art: Lead hands-on workshops in painting, drawing, and other art forms, encouraging creativity and self-expression among students.

- Collaborative Art Projects: Work with students to create group art pieces such as murals or sculptures that will be displayed on the farm.

- Sustainable Art: Use recycled or eco-friendly materials in your projects, and teach students how to incorporate sustainability into their art.

- Enhance Leap Learning: Support the Leap Learning methodology by integrating art into digital and interactive education, helping students learn through creativity.


Reglas

- No smoking in the public areas. Smoking can be done in designated areas away from students.
- The same applies for alcohol.
- To respect the local norms and values, we require volunteers, when in public areas of the premise, to wear clothes covering up to the knees and stomach.
-There is no curfew, we have 24/7 security on site. But be mindful when going out at night, better not go alone by foot. There is usually staff or other volunteers that will want to come with you if you want to do something.
- This is not really a rule, but more something to be mindful of: when you invite the locals/staff to go out for drinks dinner or parties with them, they often expect you to pay, since it is often outside of what they can afford. To avoid uncomfortable situations, when going out with staff, make sure that you are on the same line of expectation with them.
