Our partner for this project is the municipality of Kehl. They have created an innovative environmental project in their town. There is a small stream running through Kehl. In former times this was completely concreted in and biologically dead. The municipality has renatured this stream by taking the concrete away and allowing the small river to flow through the town again. There are many plants and animals living in the river now. However, since the river is in the middle of the town rubbish must be cleared from the banks of the river. Also, you will assist in mowing the banks of the river and removing some plants. This is necessary to prevent flooding in the town. This work has been carried out by an international workcamp last year. For preservation it has to be done every year. You will need to work with machines some of the time!! Please be prepared for this. Work may be physically hard. You will work in small teams.
