Vereinigung Junger Freiwilliger

Beschreibung:
Work: will help with the preparation and run the cultural activities with the local people. We will also have several workshops related to art and culture. Location: We will have free access to all the geothermal swimming pools in Reykjavík and excursion will be organized for a fair prize. Partner: In Reykjavik you can experience easily the pure energy at the heart of Iceland‘s capital city - whether from the boiling thermal energy underground, the natural green energy within the city and around it. Think of the qualities of a great city - fun, space, clean air, nature, culture - and Reykjavik has them in spades. It has the features of a modern, forward-looking society which are complemented by a close connection to beautiful nature. The population of the Reykjavik Capital Area is about 200,000. Reykjavik is spread across a peninsula with a panoramic view of the mountains and the Atlantic Ocean on almost all sides. In the summer, you can sit by the harbour at midnight and watch the sun dip slightly below the horizon before it makes its way up again. The world's northernmost capital is framed by the majestic Mt. Esja, which keeps a watchful eye on the city, and the blue waters of Faxafloi Bay. On a sunny day, the mystical Snaefellsjokull glacier appears crystal-like on the western horizon, while mountainous moonscapes spread to the southeast. One of the most important aims of WF Iceland is cultural understanding. Iceland is getting more and more intercultural and nowadays you can find people from all corners of the World in Reykjavik. We want to involve those people in our work and give them the change to contribute to the society with cultural activities and voluntary work. Therefore we have decided to organize in cooperation with other organizations, individuals, Universities, restaurants, theaters, musicians, non-formal groups, dancers, the cultural department of Reykjavik and many others a program rich of culture and full of fun. During the work camp the volunteers and the work will be focused on Asia by having workshops of Asian music and dances. As well we will involve Asian people living in Reykjavik in order to facilitate to the participants the opportunity to eat and cook Asian food, get to know them and make video forums with movies that reflect very well the situation in the continent today in order to create debates concerning different issues. At the end of the work camp we will have a Asian festival in our area in Reykjavik where we will show the outcomes of the workshops, a performance of dances and music as well food, photos, and reflections about the situation in Asia today and how young people must act in order to improve the current situation. Accomodation and food: We will stay in a fully equipped house in 101 Reykjavik city centre. The food will be provided for the duration of the workcamp and everyone is expected to do their fair part of the cooking/cleaning. It would be nice to share new and different dishes, so please remember to bring along recipes from your own countries.
