programmes are organised in both summer and winter, it is aimed at
bringing the youth of the world to learn, share ideas and experiences
and to enhance cross culture solutions. The workcamp last for between 2
to 3 weeks depending on the nature of the project.
Normally 2 weeks is spent on the project and in the third (3) week

attraction in the country. The first 2 days of arrival is used to
orientate volunteers as regards to camp life, the communities, projects,
the cultural differences and the SADEP'S administration.

local communities. However volunteers who wish to bring their own tents
are welcome. 20 - 24 volunteers are the average number for each camp.

and their environs organised by the camps or individuals. Local camps
are organised periodically.
