About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

A 2 months European Solidarity Corps project, addressed to young people coming from different countries. The project promotes social inclusion, equal opportunities and solidarity values, by involving young volunteers in the preparation, development and implementation of non-formal educational activities on different topics (such as citizenship, sport, arts, culture, food, young entrepreneurship, human rights etc) for young people (migrants, asylum seekers, refugees, disabled people, NEETs ecc.) implemented by CESIE and its local network (associations that provide services for migrants, kids and disabled people). Each volunteer will be involved for 30-35 hours per week (from Monday to Friday). We are looking for a volunteer to start the project from the beginning of September to the end of October 2023.

🏠 Accommodation on site

CESIE will provide accommodation for all the ESC volunteers. They will be hosted in an apartment located in a city center in Palermo and they will share the room with another volunteer of the same gender. The costs of meals are covered by CESIE. Most of the local organisations where the volunteers will implement their activities are located in the city center. In the case of far distances, CESIE will cover the costs for public transportation.

🎒 Leisure activities

Upon their arrival, each volunteer will take part in an on-arrival training and Mid-term eveluation by CESIE in Palermo. The volunteers will also have the opportunity to attend online linguistic course and informal activities and language exchanges.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: 18 -30 years old with fewer opportunities - a basic level of English, strong motivation and interest to work in a team with the different target groups (children, migrants, disable adults etc..); motivation in working with minors and young people.
Deadline: Application deadline: 03/08/2023

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).
