About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Your volunteering will involve helping families from the child welfare system and unaccompanied minor refugees. Your tasks will include encouraging and supporting youngsters in their daily activities (Helping them get out of bed, ensuring they attend school or other necessary places, engaging them in after-school activities, ...) and be present and serve as a positive role model for the youngsters. If you have a driver’s licence, you may also be responsible for transporting clients to appointments. You'll also have the opportunity to develop your own projects at the location, as long as they pertain to themes important in the development of young people.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be accommodated in in a studio near the city centre of Antwerp, at another of their organization’s sites. You will be provided with a public transport pass or a bicycle and two train passes for 10 single rides each within Belgium. You will receive an amount as pocket money, and 250 euro/month as food allowance. The travel from Italy to Belgium and back is fully reimbursed. An insurance company will protect you from any risk.

🎒 Leisure activities

You'll attend 3 official training sessions: a pre-departure one before leaving Italy, an on arrival one a few weeks after your advent in Belgium and a third one at around half of your volunteering. You will also receive other training in working with youngsters and reflection on your own skills. You'll be also provided with course of Dutch.

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).
