Dettagli del programma
For 25-35 hours a week (Mon-Friday), depending on the option you choose, you'll dedicate your time to El Terreno activities. This programme requires a minimum commitment of 12 weeks to ensure a meaningful impact and allow you to fully immerse yourself in the experience. We offer two flexible options to suit your availability:
ACCOMMODATION
The local community has generously offered the ‘Casa Comunal’ (village hall) as the volunteers’ living quarters. As it is a community building which often receives visitors, we ask for it to be kept clean and tidy - for which volunteers are responsible.
There are two dormitories with a total of 8 beds, bathroom (with hot water) and a kitchen used exclusively for volunteer use (apart from the odd community event). It’s clean and has all the basics to help you feel at home.
