SHORT TERM VOLUNTEERING (STV)/ WORKCAMPS Short Term Volunteering (STV) also called as workcamp is an international volunteering program where volunteers stay 1 – 3 weeks for the project.

Volunteers work in teams. There are 5 - 15 volunteers volunteering together in one workcamp. Sometimes one project site collaborate workcamps and long term

volunteering to achieve its goals. GREAT workcamps are organized seasonal in which this year is in summer, between July – early October 2017. In all workcamps

volunteers are expected to be team players, be able and enjoy exploring ideas especially on the implementing part of the project. Two campleaders (or one for

small group) lead together in a workcamp. They are volunteers who are selected, trained, experienced and mandated several responsibilities to facilitate and lead

the workcamps. However, the success of one whole workcamp mainly determined by the volunteers’ team work.

Volunteer will stay in a camp site mostly located in the project site or nearby, in collaboration with partners or local communities with the main purpose of

exchanging experiences, culture, and mutual benefit among all people involved. In many places, for locals, international workcamp is quite an event. International

volunteers might become stars for the locals as most of Indonesian people are interested to new things/people including foreigners. This way, GREAT takes this

opportunity to promote and raising awareness of issues addressed in the workcamps towards specific groups such as local mothers, fathers, students or just public

in general. Workcamp is aimed at giving opportunity for international and local volunteers who would like to be involved in the action of GREAT international

voluntary service (IVS) projects in seasonal basis.

conservation is the mass tourism. At least three millions of domestic and

international visitors step on the temple every year, this brings at least 150

million kg only from the weighs of tourists. The facts that the visitors step on

the temple wearing different surface of shoes cause erosion to the stones.

And the weather brings the unsheltered stones of the temple in higher risk of

erosion. Therefore, it is important to organize sustainable action to raise the

awareness of the visitors. At the same time, the involvement of local

community into conservation activities for the temple has been a strong

concern.

C. The aims of the camp are:

1. To give opportunity for international volunteers to learn more Borobudur temple compound and its conservation efforts.

3. To organize YGC Borobudur training batch 9.

GREAT-GWC01/ Pekalongan Vulnerable Children Camp/Pekalongan City/KIDS, EDU/18+

Project Description

A. Background: Pasir Sari, Poncol and Bugisan are areas in Pekalongan where

children with less opportunities and drop out children living. It has been

happening because of very less income of their parents who normally work in

informal sector. A hard living in the city leads people to be hardly struggle for

a living. This cause parents will insist their children as “money producer” by

asking them to go down to street to beg money. Why children? Because

people will normally feel pity on children rather than adult in giving money.

This situation put the children at risk and vulnerable. In fact, according to

convention if the rights of the child, children have rights to survival and

development. Include the rights to education, primary health care, leisure and

recreation, cultural activities, etc (unicef.org/crc). Eager to contribute to fulfill

as much as possible the rights of children living in the three areas with

guarantee of sustainable action and mentoring to the children, GREAT

organize a combine program both STV/workcamps and LMTV.

B. Project: The hygienic situation and education are really low. The work camp should support the LMTV in creating activities with

the children as well the parents in Hygiene and how to raise their living standard. Also this workcamp will address other

problems there to improve the situation such as provide space for playing, doing sport, art, etc. In addition to this, a regular

program led by our local volunteers group, GREAT of Pekalongan, so called Pusdaling – a mobile library on bicycle – is run every

week. The workcamp will support Pusdaling as well with their fun reading activities. One group did bilateral workcamp in this

project last year was Euphoria – NICE Japan which you can view it here.
