📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
Our volunteering project involve three motivated volunteers from different countries. At the moment we are looking for ONE volunteer for 10 months, working with Amycos in the city of Burgos and its province. They will be involved and assigned amongst three main lines:
-The Global Citizenship Education, for people (mainly children) from the local community, by helping the organization on the start-up of courses, workshops and different types of events related to sustainable development;
-Social Action, collaborating with others organizations in Burgos, carrying out daily supporting to immigrant people of the city in conditions of scarcity through language classes, school support learning and dining services;
- The promotion of the local and international volunteering, through the creation of educational workshops, cultural and solidarity events and the administrative management of European, international cooperation and educational projects.
🏠 Accommodation on site
The volunteers will be hosted at an apartment chosen by Amycos and in accordance to the basic qualitative standards. Specifically, accommodation will be in the city of Burgos (in a single room or twin room) depending on the availability. Sharing of common spaces will be encouraged with other volunteers; although the privacy of the volunteers will be respected. Accommodation will be in charge to Amycos and the volunteer to receive monthly 150 € for food plus a pocket money of 150 €. Burgos is a small city and it’s not necessary to use a local transport daily.
🎒 Leisure activities
Once they arrive, the volunteers will be assisted by the project coordinator and will be assigned a tutor for each activity. The coordinator will show the volunteers how the association works and what kind of activities they will develop during their stay in Burgos. He will help them to enroll in Spanish classes for immigrants planned in collaboration with the Atalaya intercultural organization.
These volunteers will also have a mentor who will help them to know the city and its possibilities and will help them with more strictly personal matters.
