2016 Workcamps in Germany 
...peacing the world together IBG Internationale Begegnung in Gemeinschaftsdiensten e.V. Fuchseckstr. 1 70188 Stuttgart GERMANY Tel: +49 (0) 711 – 649 11 28 +49 (0) 711 – 649 02 63 Fax: +49 (0) 711 – 640 98 67 www.ibg-workcamps.org About IBG IBG is a German non-profit organisation founded in 1965. Our aims are to promote international understanding and to facilitate and organise voluntary work while coordinating closely with our local partners. IBG is a registered charity and does not have a political, religious or institutional affiliation. IBG receives funds from the European Union and from the German Ministry for Youth. ABOUT OUR WORKCAMPS Age limit: 18+ years old (Exceptions are mentioned) Camp language: English is the camp language in most IBG camps. It is important that volunteers speak at least basic English. If the camp language is not English, a special mention is made in the project description. The work: Usually volunteers will work about 30 hours a week (for example six hours a day about five days a week). Exceptions are mentioned in the descriptions and are made according to the needs of the project. Accommodation: Accommodation will be in schools, gyms, youth centres, scouts huts or something similar. In general there are basic conditions but all facilities like kitchen, toilets and showers are available. If not, it is mentioned in the description. Campleaders: Usually our camps have one or two campleaders who will support the organisation of free time activities, keep an account for the money for lodging and excursions as well as provide some support to group processes in the project. Apart from these responsibilities they are volunteers like the others. Food: In most workcamps, preparing meals is self-organised by the participants. Usually everyone will take turns cooking. Contact with the local population: Establishing contact with the local population is one big aim of IBG. Of course the level and intensity of local contact depends entirely on the possibilities and cannot be forced, nevertheless volunteers should be open for contact to the local population. Insurance: All relevant insurance (personal accident, illness, third liability) is provided only within the official camp dates. EU volunteers are not insured against illness, that´s why they have to bring the European Health Insurance Card EHIC (former E111). We strongly recommend (non-EU) volunteers who plan to travel beyond these dates to bring their own insurance. More information can be found in our Infosheet. Official invitations: Probably embassies will ask for an addition of the paragraphs 66-68 to our official invitations (“Kosten fuer Rueckbefoerderung und Lebensunterhalt”). As in the past we would like to stress that IBG is not able to meet the conditions mentioned therein and that we cannot add these paragraphs to our official invitations. Volunteers with special needs: International workcamps should be open to everyone. If you have volunteers who need individual support to join a workcamp (more information, special support during the camp...) please contact us. We will do our best to find a way to host them. Accessing workcamps: All our workcamps are open and accessible for volunteers with fewer opportunities, according to the special needs and interests of the volunteers. We consider the workcamps marked with an X in the A4A column in the list on the following page especially appropriate for first time experiences in volunteering due to our local partners’ extensive support, as well as knowledge about integrative lifestyles. 
…peacing the world together!
Come to the black forest and help to renew the local Sculpture Park with artworks, viewpoints and a small open-air theatre. IBG 01 Grafenhausen (Baden-Wurttemberg) 16.04.-30.04.2016 RENO/ENVI 12 vols PROJECT: For the first time, Grafenhausen invites you to an international workcamp! It is a village with 2000 inhabitants in the Black Forest that has quite a lot to offer: for example a “Sculpture Park” with 24 artworks, view points and an open air theatre, in which you are going to work. Grafenhausen is 1000m above sea level – therefore, it might still be pretty cold in April! You definitely have to take warm clothes with you and be prepared that it could be snowy! WORK: You will have various tasks within the “Sculpture Park”, e.g. renew the paths, exchange the boardwalks through marsh area, renovate a playground, set up a wooden wall covering on the theatre, and so on. You will work mostly with wood, which might be exhausting sometimes, but also includes work like plastering and painting. ACCOMMODATION: You will be accommodated in a group house where showers and a kitchen are provided. The house is in the middle of the village, so it’s close to a supermarket and your work place. LOCATION: Grafenhausen is a very nice village within a beautiful landscape. The surrounding area is perfect for hiking trips: There are lakes close-by and it is not even half an hour by car to th e Feldberg (highest German mountain outside of the Alps). There are regularly train connections to Freiburg (student city) and Lake Constance. The town itself offers a museum of local history as well as an interactive one where you can test your senses. Also, the famous beer “Tannenzaepfle” is brewed here as well and you might be able to visit the brewery. NEXT AIRPORT: Stuttgart, Baden-Baden, Zuerich (Switzerland!) NEXT TRAIN STATION: Seebrugg This workcamp in Burk is the perfect place to experience Bavarian culture by supporting the Hikers Days and the installation of the traditional maypole. IBG 02 Burk (Bavaria) 20.04. - 04.05.2016 RENO/FEST 8 vols PROJECT: For the fourth time the small community of Burk invites an international workcamp! Last camps were a big success and so the community is happy to repeat the international experience. During the camp, on the 30th of April & 1st of May, the international hiking days are taking place in Burk and the Workcamp will help in this event. WORK: The group will have different tasks to do: You will help in the organisation of the international hiking day’s event, in which about 2000 hikers will participate. For the first of May you will prepare and install the maypole (Maibaum) and participate in the maypole celebration, which is a popular tradition, particularly in southern Germany. Furthermore, you will do various renovation and maintenance work on the local cemetery, playgrounds and green areas around the community. ACCOMMODATION: A building in the community. You will cook for yourselves. Please bring your own sleeping bag. LOCATION: Burk is a small and calm village in Bavaria with 1100 inhabitants. It is surrounded by beautiful nature with forests and hills. It is perfect for walks or hiking.
