PROJECT:

The neighborhood of Rimac, at the time of colonial Lima, used to be the part of the town where the Spanish nobles had their luxurious residences. That changed with the time, and nowadays the hyped Miraflores and Barranco districts house the high and medium classes of Lima, while Rimac has been deserted. The ancient colonial and pre-colonial heritage has been for long neglected, but now the municipality, in collaboration with the Bolivarian Brigade of Volunteers, has decided to change the situation.

For 2018, the Brigada, in partnership with other local organizations, presented a project of valorization and conservation of the historical center of Rimac to the World Heritage Volunteering Initiative in order to dynamize the process of rehabilitation of the district.

The Brigade and the Municipality of Rimac welcome the volunteers willing to help us to help in the requalification of the Backus factory, the cleaning of the Huaca la Florida and the mobilization of the inhabitants in the Trujillo street.

WORK

Sensitize the population of the district to the importance of the cultural heritage conservation through the requalification of historical sites of the city center.

The Aguaytia branch of the Brigade of Bolivarian Volunteers of Peru invites you to participate as a volunteer to reinforce the activities of the Center for Integral Family Development (Cedif), a unit of the National Integral Program for Wellbeing Familiar (INABIF), where children, adolescents and seniors are assisted. The social work done by this structure, even if little known by the population, is very important for the community. These spaces provide specialized services aimed at strengthening families, the promotion of respectful and caring family relationships and the integral development of its members.

The project aims to work with children and adults, who are a fundamental link of the integral development of our society. We hope to strenghten food security and care of the environment through the installation of BIOHUERTOS (organic orchards), which is an efficient and sustainable alternative to protect the environment and generate our own food supplies without using synthetic chemicals to control pests or fertilize the land, as well as avoiding the use of plastic bags used for package. Also, through this activity, children are taught the importance of environmental care and how to grow food in urban spaces.

The organic agricultural approach that used during this project is the Biogarden. Its agroecological production does not harm the soil or the environment, on the contrary it assures the long term productivity of the soil, fixing nutrients and absorbing only what is necessary. The control of pests and diseases is assured in a biological way, that allows achieving a natural balance in the environment, without producing toxicity or totally eliminating species, and also improves feeding with the consumption of fresh and healthy vegetables.

We welcome volunteers to be part of this program and participate in the installation activities of Bio-gardens and environmental care activities.

You can breathe the atmosphere of the colonial Lima just walking in its ancient streets, lined with beautiful “casona”, the houses of the Spanish nobles.

Besides, you have all the leisure activities of a big and modern capital at your disposal, museums, archeological sites, bars, restaurants, clubs, and even the possibility to surf on the waves of the Pacific Ocean! From Lima you can easily organize excursions to visit all the most beautiful sites of Perú, like Machu Pichu, the Titicaca lake, the White Cordillera etc.


SPECIAL REMARKS:

Bring a warm sleeping bag, working clothes, gloves and shoes, warm and rain clothes and a flashlight. Everybody must, in any case, bring their insurance certificate. If health issues happen on the project, volunteers will have to pay for it, and then be reimbursed once back in their home country.

MEETING POINT:

You can reach Lima by plane from all around the world. The meeting point is at the arrival terminal of the Jorge Chavez International Airport of Lima (LIM) the 8th of July at 9 PM. The camp leaders will welcome the volunteers and then move the group to the accommodation by public transport.
