Flag in Namur, Belgium! (JAVVA)

During the beginning of june was such a nice festival in Belgium : Namur en Mai!
JAVVA was there, the workcamp was about getting involved in building the festival, and cleaning up afterwards.
Why would we tell you about that? Because the Flag was there!



The event we created : thanks to the festival, we had a very good exchange with the locals. Therefore, volunteers decided to get in the street with the Flag and ask people about volunteering.

The question we asked : If you were to do a volunteering, where and what would it be?

Let's gather everybody in the room, papers, scissors, colours, we wrote the question down several times, so that people will be able to write their answers, and then we would hang it around the Flag, in the street!




And there we are, meeting locals, chatting with them about us, workcamps, Flag Tour, international volunteering !


Please appreciate the grass in the street, that was part of our work ! We put the grass down for the festival, and removed it four days later !




There it is, we have lots of answers !
Most of the people would like to do a volunteering in Asia, and work with children, but some would like to work on festivals in U.K., or building and renovating in Africa.


We linked all the answers together, around the Flag.



And the final picture, eight volunteers, three locals, one Flag, eleven smiles !




Enjoy your Flag adventure, greetings from Belgium!



Maëva, with Halim, Alvaro, Aurélie,
Yun, Anna, Stéphane and Salva
