PROJECT: Valophis Habitat is a significant social landlord in the Ile de France Region. It owns several buildings in Saint-Denis. To beautify these spaces, Valophis Habitat would like to decorate the main hall with two mosaic murals. The inhabitants would be consulted at the beginning of this year to choose the theme of the murals. Then a group of volunteers would be involved to create it. It is the first time that an international work camp is organized in the city. During three weeks, a group of international volunteers will take part in the project to decorate and beautify the exterior of the residence halls.

« 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! »
