We believe that corporate gatherings can be both impactful and responsible, creating lasting benefits for both participants and the local community. Recently, we had the pleasure of hosting an event that embodied this ethos through a special collaboration with DEŠA Dubrovnik.
Making an Impact with DEŠA
DEŠA Dubrovnik is a key player in the local community, dedicated to preserving traditional crafts and supporting vulnerable groups through a range of educational programmes. During the event, our guests participated in various volunteer stations, including necklace crafting, lavender filling, patchwork creation, fabric and canvas work and product packaging.
These activities allowed participants to contribute directly to the creation of handmade products, central to DEŠA’s mission of promoting sustainable practices and preserving local traditions.
This event was a prime example of how sustainable practices can be seamlessly woven into an itinerary, providing a meaningful and memorable experience for all involved. By engaging in volunteer work that supported DEŠA’s mission, our guests not only strengthened their team but also made a tangible contribution to the preservation of Dubrovnik’s cultural heritage.
An Idea for Future Groups
This successful collaboration demonstrates how corporate events can incorporate sustainability, offering participants a unique and enriching experience. We encourage other groups to consider similar activities as part of their event itinerary. In addition to on-site volunteering, we can arrange off-site programmes such as beach clean-ups or olive-picking, further enhancing your event’s impact on the community.
