Description of the partner organizing/hosting the project:
The organization in charge of the work camp is "Balmes Blancs", a non-profit association created in 2010 with the aim of offering unique activities in nature with the aim of presenting new places and new people and deepening, thus, the knowledge of the Catalan territory. 
Since its inception, it has organized various activities such as snowshoe outings with animal footprints, astronomical discoveries, kayak outings to discover marine fauna, rafting drops, hiking in the mountains, or leveling and safety workshops, among others. 
In 2013 the association began working in the Siarb Valley. From that moment on, Balmes Blancs began to focus its activities around this valley and, among other things, guided visits to the "Despoblat de Santa Creu" de Llagunes, visits to the trenches on the Pallars front and to the Vilamur bunkers, discoveries of geology, and activities of flora and fauna in the environment. 
At the same time, the refuge promotes hiking with the creation of signposted routes around Llagunes, as well as a series of actions aimed at recovering the heritage of the Siarb Valley and discovering rural life in Pallars Sobirà and in the rest of the Pyrenees.

Description of work:
The purpose of this workcamp is to participate in the recovery of old paths and learn the history of the Pyrenees, learn about culture and nature, and participate in both with different activities of preservation and conservation.
The technical work that will be carried out in the field of work consists, in general, in different tasks related to the recovery of the old roads of the valley.
The following are the main ones:
- Road clearing: mowing grass, bushes, etc., which grow in the spring to leave the roads comfortably passable on foot.
- Remove stones from the road: pick up stones that have fallen on the road and set them aside in an orderly manner at the edges to make the passage passable.
- Rebuild the simplest sections of dry stone wall: rebuild those walls that have fallen and are easily rebuildable.
- Improved signage with paint: review the tracking marks of the paths with paint according to the instructions given to us by the "Alt Pirineu" Natural Park.
- Improved paved sections: some trails have cobbled sections that have worn out; redo these sections in order to maintain the cobbled areas.

The terrain is called “La Solana”, near Vilamur

Description of location and leisure:
The workcamp is done in a calm and peaceful area of the Catalan Pyrenees called “Vall de Siarb”.

Description of accommodation and food:
The accommodation is in a terrain called "La Solana”, near the village of Vilamur.
It's a camping area in the middle of nature, so you should definitely be eager to have a (somehow) wild experience!
Volunteers will spend their days at a campsite, and they will camp and sleep in tents; usually there are 3-4 participants per tent and no separation by gender.
Tents are basic; mainly, there’s only space for sleeping or lying down. Tents will be provided by the organization, and volunteers will sleep on a mattress on the floor. Participants must bring their own sleeping bag (it’s highly recommended to bring a good one, as in the Pyrenees it can be cold at night even in summer) and mattress.
There is 1 dry toilet near the campsite and 1 shower available in the camp with COLD WATER (we strongly recommend bringing eco- and biodegradable shower gel or shampoo). There is no hot water in the camp. No gender separation for showers in the river; previous agreements will be done with the group.
The volunteers are in charge of cooking and keeping the area clean and safe: they will be split into groups, each group will prepare the food for one day, and they will be rotating every day, so they will be camping in the field and cooking by themselves.
In general, lunch and dinner will be warm meals, but exceptions can be made in case of a trekking route or spending the whole day out of the campsite.
There’s no Wi-Fi at the campsite. However, there's a mobile phone signal in the area, so you should be able to connect to 4G almost everywhere.
IMPORTANT: There is no electricity to charge phones in the terrain, but there is the possibility to charge the phones in the village of Vilamur.

Cooperativa Sociale Liberi Sogni, is a small no-profit organization that has organized, since 2006, social, cultural and environmental projects in the districts of Lecco, Bergamo and Monza e Brianza, in the region of Lombardy. Liberi Sogni always considered the intercultural topic very important. Many people that work in the Cooperative experimented directly with how important it is to promote solidarity and attention towards cultures, especially among young people. Since 2012 Liberi Sogni has hosted international summer camps with Lunaria, Youth Exchanges and EVS volunteers under Erasmus Plus Programme.
Cascina Rapello, the hosting place of the workcamp, is a welcoming and innovative center dedicated to reconnecting with the earth and rediscovering ancient knowledge and traditions, while also serving as a space for experimenting with new ideas, forms, and languages.In 2020, Liberi Sogni acquired the eighteenth-century Cascina, nestled among terraced fields and chestnut woods—a place long abandoned that we chose to regenerate as the new home for our activities. Today, it hosts a wide range of social, cultural, and environmental projects for children, youth, and adults.

Description of work:
Participants will live and work at Cascina Rapello, experiencing life on a rural social farm. Each day will include around 6 hours of work, while the remaining time will be dedicated to organized activities and workshops. Volunteers will engage in a variety of tasks, from cultivating vegetable gardens and fruit trees to restoring the ancient woods and building structures using materials found on site.

Description of accommodation and food:
The accommodation is in a terrain called "La Solana”, near the village of Vilamur.
It's a camping area in the middle of nature, so you should definitely be eager to have a (somehow) wild experience!
Volunteers will spend their days at a campsite, and they will camp and sleep in tents; usually there are 3-4 participants per tent and no separation by gender.
Tents are basic; mainly, there’s only space for sleeping or lying down. Tents will be provided by the organization, and volunteers will sleep on a mattress on the floor. Participants must bring their own sleeping bag (it’s highly recommended to bring a good one, as in the Pyrenees it can be cold at night even in summer) and mattress.
There is 1 dry toilet near the campsite and 1 shower available in the camp with COLD WATER (we strongly recommend bringing eco- and biodegradable shower gel or shampoo). There is no hot water in the camp. No gender separation for showers in the river; previous agreements will be done with the group.
The volunteers are in charge of cooking and keeping the area clean and safe: they will be split into groups, each group will prepare the food for one day, and they will be rotating every day, so they will be camping in the field and cooking by themselves.
In general, lunch and dinner will be warm meals, but exceptions can be made in case of a trekking route or spending the whole day out of the campsite.
There’s no Wi-Fi at the campsite. However, there's a mobile phone signal in the area, so you should be able to connect to 4G almost everywhere.
IMPORTANT: There is no electricity to charge phones in the terrain, but there is the possibility to charge the phones in the village of Vilamur.

Description of the partner organizing/hosting the project:
Cooperativa Sociale Liberi Sogni, is a small no-profit organization that has organized, since 2006, social, cultural and environmental projects in the districts of Lecco, Bergamo and Monza e Brianza, in the region of Lombardy. Liberi Sogni always considered the intercultural topic very important. Many people that work in the Cooperative experimented directly with how important it is to promote solidarity and attention towards cultures, especially among young people. Since 2012 Liberi Sogni has hosted international summer camps with Lunaria, Youth Exchanges and EVS volunteers under Erasmus Plus Programme.
Cascina Rapello, the hosting place of the workcamp, is a welcoming and innovative center dedicated to reconnecting with the earth and rediscovering ancient knowledge and traditions, while also serving as a space for experimenting with new ideas, forms, and languages.In 2020, Liberi Sogni acquired the eighteenth-century Cascina, nestled among terraced fields and chestnut woods—a place long abandoned that we chose to regenerate as the new home for our activities. Today, it hosts a wide range of social, cultural, and environmental projects for children, youth, and adults.

Description of work:
Participants will live and work at Cascina Rapello, experiencing life on a rural social farm. Each day will include around 6 hours of work, while the remaining time will be dedicated to organized activities and workshops. Volunteers will engage in a variety of tasks, from cultivating vegetable gardens and fruit trees to restoring the ancient woods and building structures using materials found on site. They will also take care of the farm’s animals and facilities, and help prepare meals using fresh organic produce. Beyond the practical work, volunteers will take part in social and inclusive activities, welcoming local groups, including people with disabilities and youngsters from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds.
