  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Well cultural exchange is at the heart of our mission. We offer volunteers and visitors an immersive experience into the rich woodworking traditions of Corvo Island. Participants engage in crafting the traditional Fechadura do Corvo locks, using sustainable practices and locally sourced materials like the endemic Juniperus brevifolia. Beyond hands-on workshops, we foster community involvement through events like "Chapo de Portas Abertas," where locals and visitors share stories, skills, and cultural insights. Our initiatives aim to preserve Corvo's heritage while promoting sustainable tourism and global cultural appreciation.
