Project:
“World meets Euro 2008” in Spangenberg, a small village in the middle of Germany, there is an 8 acre hill called Himmelsfels. There are embassies of different countries scattered throughout the premises. They are artistically designed and renovated caravans. In the summertime, there are different events full of art and culture, gospel and encounter. This year during the EURO 2008 an international soccer championship accompanied by a divers and creative programme will be organized. The most important games will be shown live.
The 'Stiftung Himmelsfels' is a Christian organisation and aims to create a place of encounter for people of different languages and origins and their fellow Germans. This place of intercultural and ecumenical discovery should awaken a longing for a life together characterised by a spirit of equality and community. This will be a topic in the theoretical and the practical part of the Workcamp as well.
Work:
The emphasis of the work will be the involvement with children and youth from Spangenberg and its region. The participants of the Workcamp are ambassadors of their countries and will work continuously with a small group of young people.
The youth will get to know their country, decorate the embassy and will play in the soccer team of their ambassador’s country. Thus the participants of the Workcamp can also offer workshops on artistic, sport or musical topics.
Moreover the participants have the possibility to present their country on an open evening. For this reason participants should collect some ideas about how to present their country and should bring the necessary material.
Additionally some handicraft and housekeeping work will be done.
Accommodation:
Accommodation will be very simple in tents or caravans. If possible, please bring sleeping bags. Some evenings in June will be rather cold, so please bring warm and rain resistant clothes-
