📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Well-being and Sports for Multicultural Women (Monaliiku) is an NGO established in 2009 to create more opportunities for women from diverse backgrounds to engage in sports activities, with focus on women with immigrant background. Our mission is to promote the health, well-being and physical activities of women and girls through sports and cultural activities, regardless of their religion, skin colour or cultural background. In addition, our aim is to ensure and increase the equal participation of women and girls in sports and hobbies. We have expertise in understanding gender and culturally binded chracteristics related to sports environment and in integrating gender- and culturally sensitive methods when designing sports activities for women.

💼 What the programme involves

Monaliiku - Well-being and Sports for Multicultural Women is an NGO established in 2009 to create more opportunities for women from diverse backgrounds to engage in sports activities. Monaliiku is coordinating local projects and sports activities like Fit4Life, Mentor on the Move or Elderly Ladies on the Move. Monaliiku is looking for two volunteers for 2024. The other volunteer will work with marketing and communications, with tasks such as updating social media channels and writing newsletter. The second volunteer will support the work in the different projects and activities. The volunteer will also be coordinating the activities in the different EU projects in which Monaliiku is a partner. The volunteer will be mostly responsible with the communication with the different organisations involved in these projects.

🏠 Accommodation on site

⚠️ Requirements

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
