    Over het programma

    Bali is full of lush green scenery but sadly due to a rise in tourism, as well as further developments, this has left some negative consequences as a result. Litter is becoming an increasing problem.

    Food in Bali was traditionally wrapped in biodegradable banana leaves, but now after the rise of plastic water bottles and wrappers, many of this litter is just thrown on the ground. This is not the behaviour or message we want the children to be seeing, so the aim of this project is to teach the children how to respect and treat their environment the right way. 

    Teaching the kids at a young age can help them to learn about how to environmentally friendly. Finding fun and create ways to teach will get them excited to learn!

    The emphasis is on “hands-on” techniques and getting the children out and about in nature and working together. Volunteers spend around two hours each morning planning their lesson and activities and go to the schools in the Ubud area in the afternoon.
    Our environmental education program focuses on primary schools in Bali. Whilst education is the starting point, we encourage students to work together and do their part, emphasising that even the smallest of effort can make a big difference! 
    Lesson plans will be confirmed again every Friday. Feel free to bring along anything you think the kids may find helpful and prepare any classroom activities to inspire your students. 

    Aims & Objectives
    Inspire the children to look after their environment and teach on environmental awareness
    Get the kids doing hands on educational activities 
    Be creative in your lesson plans to get the kid excited to learn!


    Location
    Ubud, pronounced ‘oobood’ is located centrally in the heart of Balinese culture. Far removed from the tourist crowds of Kuta, it is famous as an arts and crafts hub, and much of the town and nearby villages seems to consist of artists’ workshops and galleries and a general feeling of well being. Ubud is surrounded by most of the things that bring people to this unique destination – scenic rice fields, small villages, art and craft communities, ancient temples, palaces and rivers.

    *PLEASE NOTE: All participants for the Education, Teaching, Construction, and Turtle Conservation projects, are required to apply for a C6 Social Cultural visa prior to arrival. Participants who have a Visa On Arrival or an E-Visa on Arrival will not be able to participate in these projects. Participants who only attend the culture, adventure, and yoga weeks will be accepted to join the programs with a Visa on Arrival. Going through an online agency or via our local team is the easiest way to obtain the visa. 

      **Exceptions to the C6 visa

    Participants can join any program with a Visa on Arrival (VOA) for the following program types:

    • 1-week culture week, plus 1 to 3 week volunteer program
    • 1-week volunteer program

    However, it is important to highlight that participants using a VOA must put 'tourism' for reason of visit.

    We still encourage volunteers to arrive with a C6 visa for all programs. Please note that obtaining and using a VOA is entirely the participant's responsibility. We cannot be held accountable for any issues or concerns arising from this, as we are obligated to recommend the appropriate visa type for participants joining volunteering projects.
