⭐️ Activity Title
Environmental Education in rural Germany (Haus Wildtierland)
🔷 Activity Details
Description
Haus Wildtierland is located in the foothills of the Brohmer Berge in the region of Western Pomerania. It is surrounded by fields and forests, which are managed ecologically and in a wildlife-friendly manner by the neighbouring Klepelshagen Estate of the German Wildlife Foundation. The areas are home to a unique community of flora and fauna. Haus Wildtierland is a school country home and offers both children and adults unique nature experiences. The team organises school trips, holiday camps, project weeks, seminars and conferences. We have many years of experience hosting local volunteers. Starting in September 2026 we offer a position in our house for a volunteer in the European Solidarity Corps programme. Will it be you? Please apply via the application form: https://turbina-pomerania.org/en/esc !Applicants who do not fill the application form cannot be considered.!
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
Accommodation will be within the "Haus Wildtierland". You will have your own room, a small kitchen and bathroom. You will receive food allowance each month and are responsible for your meals yourself. You will receive a monthly travel ticket. It is possible to borrow a bicycle for the duration of your mobility (a deposit must be paid). Please know that the location is very rural, and the next train station requires a 30min bicycle ride (no buses). It is possible to drive to the next bigger city by car with your colleagues from time to time (e.g. to do grocery shopping).
Training during the activity
You will participate in two seminar weeks organized by the German national agency: the on arrival training and midterm evaluation. Both take place somewhere in Germany, together with other ESC volunteers. Moreover, you will be part of the international seminar group of our coordinating organisation "Turbina Pomerania". You can find infos on the seminars here: https://turbina-pomerania.org/en/seminars . Lastly, we offer a German class with a professional German teacher.
