ENVIRONMENT

Environmental projects for youth!

The youth environmental camps have a holistic and regenerative approach. The aim is to carry out several initiatives which, taken together, will have a sustainable impact on local communities and on biodiversity. The educational aspect is very important in a youth humanitarian trip, the aim being to learn from the experience, understand the purpose of the assignment, and contribute to its impact

WILDLIFE

Wildlife projects for youth!

Discovering biodiversity, studying the behaviour of certain animals in their natural habitat, protecting endangered species, making children aware of the importance of animal welfare and respect... these are the objectives of the teenagers that take part in animal protection projects. Animal shelters are also part of the humanitarian trips for the young people, and offer an in-depth learning experience in animal care, supervised by local professionals

COMMUNITIES

Humanitarian projects for youth!

Community projects as part of humanitarian youth trips are naturally adapted to teenagers. Activities mainly revolve around workshops in schools or cultural centres (sports, arts, educational workshops, etc.) or the renovation of infrastructures, small gardening jobs, painting, etc. in teams. We will always try to mix groups of international students and local students so that the cooperative work is long term and involves cultural exchange.
