📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
Our goal is to support, with liberal educational art interventions, the revitalization of the regenerated civic school Alma d’Arte (“Soul of Art”) placed in Motta, a tiny hamlet of the town of Sant’Angelo a Cupolo (BN), in a rural area of the Campania region, in the south of Italy. Alma d’Arte is a creative space that aspires to become a mirror of the everyday local life, reflecting the community needs, and a hub for active citizenship, where people engage themselves in the processes of governance and management of the space. Our European Solidarity Corps project Alma di Motta aims to involve 3 young volunteers from 3 different European countries. They will be hosted in Motta from 15th June to 15th December 2021, explore with our team on creative methodologies of social engagement and experiment non-formal education with the local children and youth. Any art outcomes created during their stay will be placed in Alma d’Arte as memorabilia of the initiative.
🏠 Accommodation on site
We support collective life and green policies and we would like to enhance this mentality to our volunteers. Smoking will be strictly forbidden inside the rooms. The volunteers will be responsible for cooking and cleaning. In the property will be included also laundry detergent (one load of washing per week), toilet. paper, towels and bed linen, including blankets and matresses and carpets. Electricity, water and heat are covered. We will provide pocket-money transferred or paid regularly (on set deadlines), food-money or sufficient and healthy meals, keys to the office for each volunteer.
🎒 Leisure activities
During this stage the host organization will identify clear learning opportunities for and with each volunteer, support all volunteers to understand the meaning of intercultural learning and be aware of the ongoing intercultural learning process, and their motivations, expectations and fears, and reflect on their goals, including personal goals for learning. For this reason, a series of digital tools will be used by the mentor for the participants such as questionnaries, individual and team videocalls in regular basis and all outcomes will be kept on files for future use.
