背景 Ekomar is an association whose goal is promotion and ecological marketing of natural resources. It is founded in 2015. and from that moment they work diligently on spreading the ideas of good ecological practices. Their focus is mainly on the work with youngsters through different projects and programmes. Important outcome of the efforts in last years is the informative Eco-center on the lake Gru?a, whose aim is to educate people about the importance of water eco-systems. Every year thousands of kids visit the center, where they can learn a lot about different ecological topics. The team has biologists, ecologists and pedagogists.

Young Researchers of Serbia (YRS) was founded in 1976. Our main aims are environmental protection and education, promotion of sustainable development, work with young people in an international context, promotion of scientific creativity and voluntarism and its values. Voluntary Service of Serbia is a volunteer exchange service center founded in 1990 as one of the sectors of YRS.
仕事内容 The work will be consisted of 3 parts. First one concerns painting of 10 informative signs with protective material. After that, they will be put onto planned locations. Second task will be preparing wooden baskets for trash (the volunteers will assemble the parts first) and placing them at specific positions, so the visitors can throw the trash in the right spot. Third one will be two big actions of cleaning the lake area, so everybody can enjoy in beautiful nature.
宿泊 The volunteers will be accommodated in the Eco-informative center "Jezero Gru?a (Lake Gruza)". There will be 2 possibilities, to sleep in the tents in front of it and inside the center on mattresses. In both cases, everything will be provided (tents and sleeping bags in first case and bed-linens in the second). Still, if you bring your own, we will not make any problems. Haha. Food will be provided from local farmers and volunteers will have the opportunity to make some meals for the others. Still, there will be no pressure about it.
場所 . Lake Gruza (Gru?a; pronounced: Gruzha) is located in the central region of Serbia, in the municipality Kni?, not far from Kragujevac, regional center, that uses the water from it for drinking. It is surrounded by beautiful nature (even intact in many places), so the guests like to come here often (especially on weekends)! The water is rich in fish, especially carp and pikeperch. Also, this zone is a home for many rare and protected birds (IBA area).

The camp will take place on the edge of the lake, practically, in the center that is suitable for lectures, but also outdoor activities. In the center, there is permanent exhibition "Life in water", that is about different water organisms that live in Serbia and Yugoslavia/Balkan area.

Educative workshops will be organized, as well as some excursions, but more details on that will be written in the Infosheet.

In every case, bring a positive attitude, meeting people from other cultures is really important to the host!
