Work and Travel in Kabupaten Gianyar
WORK IN KABUPATEN GIANYAR ALL YEAR ROUND
We have largely completed a major construction project to build a new learning centre here at our base. We will teach sustainability practices, English and extra curricular subjects to local children and adults. There are opportunities for volunteers with teaching skills to bring new ideas and programs to our learning centre.
We also run hands-on permaculture workshops for expats and tourists whose fees subsidise the locals.
The building is made mostly of bamboo and you can see a satay stick scale model in the images here in our profile.
We have various tasks to be performed around our HQ as set out below, along with work to develop our model farm nearby.
Gardening and garden maintenance, including weeding, watering, potting up seedlings, plant identification and labelling, sorting seed for our seed bank;
Farm work, including helping to establish a demonstration rice farm with integrated aquaculture and the keeping of a cow, pigs and ducks;
Administrative duties including help with computer work;

English teaching and language practise;
Help with establishing an eco camping project;
General maintenance and repairs around the properties - handyman/ or woman duties. (Someone with a few plumbing skills would be great!)
