💼 What the programme involves
We are looking for 1 more volunteer for the European Solidarity Corps Programme to complement the group of 2 volunteers!
The main task of the volunteers will be to facilitate various non-formal and informal learning activities for disadvantaged children in different foster care and children's homes in Miercurea Ciuc. The main focus will be on the topic environment (e.g. upcycling, recycling, litter picking, etc.) Each day of the week volunteers will go to different locations in different parts of our town to provide activities for various disadvantaged children in foster care.
Through non-formal education and fun activities, volunteers will develop the social and English language skills of the children and raise awareness about the importance of environment protection. In the homes volunteers spend part of their time working with individual children and part of their time working in small groups.
