O tabara de voluntariat este locul unde oameni de rase, ideologii si nationalitati diferite traiesc si muncesc impreuna timp de doua pana la patru saptamani in cadrul unui proiect sustinut de o organizatie locala. Majoritatea taberelor de voluntariat se desfasoara in timpul verii si cuprind intre 10 si 20 de participanti. Acestia desfasoara o activitate de voluntariat si in timpul taberei interactioneaza si muncesc impreuna cu membrii comunitatii locale. Voluntarii reprezinta o forta multiculturala, internationala de munca. Aceasta este o tabara de voluntariat – si
functioneaza!
Taberele de voluntariat asigura tinerilor oportunitatea de a combina energiile proprii si abordeaza impreuna probleme importante ale viitorului planetei noastre. Fie ca lucreaza la un centru pentru copii in Paris, intr-un proiect pentru protectia mediului in Colorado sau in cadrul unor ateliere de munca in Sri Lanka, eforturile voluntarilor contribuie la realizarea pacii mondiale.
Proiectele se impart in trei categorii largi – munca fizica, precum constructii, plantari sau renovari; activitati sociale, adesea cu copii, pesoane in varsta sau persoane cu dizabilitati; sau studiu, unde munca si invatatura sunt combinate.
Taberele de voluntariat promoveaza egalitatea intre oameni, in viata de zi cu zi. Taberele incurajeaza forme alternative pentru viata comunitatii, cu obiectivul cresterii nivelului de toleranta si facilitarii intelegerii intre oameni.
