Since 2023 Ecodorp Bergen has been accredited with the Quality Label for Host and have space to welcome two ESC volunteers per year.
As an ESC volunteer, you join our community and help further develop the eco-village project. You live with us for 6 months to 12 months and participate in our work activities. There is always a lot to do on our 15 hectare terrain and the work varies – including working in the garden, cooking for the group, helping with the sustainable renovation of buildings, organizing events, maintaining the food forest, and supporting our external communication to name a few examples. We are developing along the four dimensions of an ecovillage; new economy, sustainability, spirituality/sociology, and community. From Monday to Friday you are active with the ecodorp project for approximately 6 hours a day. Depending on the chore, you’ll be coached or work alongside ecovillage residents and volunteers. We’ll create a plan together that matches your experience, interests, qualities, and learning goals.
You live in the Youth House, where you have your own bedroom and share a kitchen, bathroom, living room, and garden with other young people. The Youth House mentor is will support you during your stay at the eco-village.
