Summary
We are looking for new, self-motivated, responsible volunteers to help bring our Business Case/Plan to completion.Detailed description
Project Development Assistants
Who We Are:
Welcome to Viable Community, a non-profit organization rooted in the European Union. At the heart of our mission is the establishment of community-managed projects dedicated to the preservation and regeneration of nature. Currently, we have around 45 active volunteers and a project in the conceptual/development phase which will combat desertification in Extremadura, Spain. We will cover the soil with solar panels (AgriVoltaics) and give space to indigenous vegetation. We then integrate regenerative agriculture to create an opportunity for people to invest, as well as donate, their time, money, and efforts.
