📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The Foundation for the Adaptation and Development of Bilingual Children and Youth Bilingwo is based in Poznań, and is dedicated to supporting the unique needs of bilingual children and young people from Ukraine and Belarus, particularly those with migratory experiences. Our mission is to foster integration, cultural exchange, and personal development while celebrating linguistic diversity. Bilingwo organizes various projects and events aimed at children aged 3–12 and their families. These initiatives include workshops, cultural activities, and educational programs that help children navigate the challenges of adapting to a new environment. Volunteers play a key role in Bilingwo’s activities, contributing their skills to enrich workshops, mentor children, and support our events. Your tasks: - to help children in the kindergarten - to help with documents in reception - to help create materials for lessons - to help in winter camp - to help in conference for migrants and refuge

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).
