Klek is a modern and dynamic village in the region of Vojvodina, with a highly developed infrastructure. It has 3000 inhabitants with a large number of young people interested about having foreign volunteers this summer to work with them on this innovative project. The goal of the workcamp is to reconstruct a classic model of bicycle (donated by village families) and organize an alternative transport program, a public bicycle, first time in Serbia and in the Balkans! Having foreign volunteers in the village would be a good way for the inhabitants to accept this new trend. Creative ideas for the promotion are welcome!
Work:
Reconstruction of old bicycles and promotion of the bicycle tracks. “Pony” was the most popular bicycle brand in ex-YU, so everybody who had one in the garage donated it to the project! In this way bicycles of high sentimental value will be made public property. Volunteers will paint the bicycle parking spaces as well, make road signs and spread leaflets.
Accommodation:
In a house of traditional look. Food will be prepared by the host, with most welcome help from the volunteers.
Location:
Klek is situated on 7km from Zrenjanin and 75km from Belgrade.
« I would recommend participating in a workcamp, especially with VAP, who ensured that I found a project to suit me and provided essential training for me in preparation for my trip. Being part of a workcamp really is a life-changing experience, oh, and it looks great on your CV! »
