MS03 VINGSTED IRON AGE VEJLE 08/07–22/07
ARCH/CONS 13 VOLS 18+
WORK: The Vingsted Historical Workshop is a culture activity and teaching centre owned and run the county of Vejle. Vingsted Historical Workshop is divided into two sections – The Iron Age environment and Vingsted Mill, an old restored mill farm. Both are situated in beautiful scenic surroundings. Through the past 27 years a number of houses have been erected in the iron-age environment. Here school classes come to spend a few days living and working like people would have done during the
Iron Age. The Vingsted Mill contains workshops for old crafts like blacksmith, wood, textiles and pottery. The Mill is hosting a range of teaching activities. All activities of the workcamp will take part in the Iron Age environment, where workcamps in 2004 and 2005 have started the reconstruction of a manor farm consisting of 3 great long houses. The workshop will supply the necessary tools and instruction on how to use them and how to do the work. The concrete work projects will be: 1) Furnishing and decorating the living rooms and the gathering/ceremonial room. 2) Making clay walls. 3) Cutting wood for the pillars in the construction. The 3 work projects can be fitted to the participants’ technical skills, physical condition and stamina.

WORK: The iron-age village is a historical workshop, with reconstructed houses and environment, where schoolchildren come to try their hands at iron-age crafts and to experience what everyday life was like 2000 years ago. We will create a courtyard surrounding the recently constructed smithy, by building fences of intertwined branches. We will also renovate the reconstructed sacrificial place of the village to make it even more historically correct. When possible we will use tools in keeping with the iron-ages. The work will take place under skilled supervision.

MS01 TINGBJERG KIDS COPENHAGEN
23/06-07/07 KIDS/SOCI 8 VOLS 18+
WORK: Many of the residents in the Tingbjerg-Utterslevhuse area are children (33%) with a non-Danish cultural background (Somalia, Iraq, Pakistan, Yugoslavia, Morocco, and Lebanon). Most of the children come from families with unemployed parents that speak poor Danish. These families have no network and very little connection to Danish society in general. The children do not belong to a peer-group and drift around, especially during the summer vacation. They miss the opportunities to join
networks and groups that could create the references they need to really become integrated in the community. We think that the ethnic diversity is a resource and we want to highlight that in this project. The aim is to give the children shared experiences and insight into games, music, food and movement from different cultures. To give the participants an opportunity to discover what they have in common and how they are different through working together and to form a network outside school. Furthermore, many of these children desperately need positive
interaction with adults. They need to experience that grown-ups can be there for them. We don't expect their lives to change overnight, but we do expect them to get a more nuanced picture of grown-ups. After the last two years of summer activities, we have experienced closer contact and the children have been more open to taking part in different activities.
