CHIOCCIOLA - LA CASA DEL NOMADE

 INTRODUCTION

Rural areas often offer less

opportunities for youth than their
urban equivalents. Nevertheless, we
can create opportunities for
ourselves.
We want to invite 30 youngsters (18
– 26) to an international meeting in
Pennabilli, a small village in Italy,
with the aim to create local
initiatives around culture, education
and social activism.
It will bring value both to their
towns and to the participants – you
will learn new skills and
competences which will help you to
find your place on the labor market.
 OBJECTIVES OF
THE PROJECT

- to bring together 30
youngsters from rural areas and
empower them in their personal
development focusing on
entrepreneurial and
labor competences.

historical centre, equally close to shops, cafes and all the facilities the village
offers.

Participants will be hosted in double, triple or quadruple rooms in one of the

different cozy houses available. Each house has 1 or 2 bathrooms, with hot
water and all the expected commodities of a modern rural house.
There will be no wifi.
 FOOD

Lunch and dinner will be provided and freshly prepared by the community, making
use of local products. Participants will be involved in the preparation during their

 ABOUT US

"Chiocciola la casa del nomade" was founded in 2010. It matured from an interest
in  places and the complexities that underlie them. Artistic, educational and
historical-environmental researches twined together resulting in activities
related to the education and appreciation of nature and its territories.

We are using methods of non-formal education for learning about 

landscape, agriculture, rural life, sustainability, healthy lifestyle, social farming,
urban planning, history, local and international culture and personal development.
