About the project

ESC: Citizenship Lab 2024 - Volunt. Edition @ Rota Jovem

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Rota Jovem is a non-profit Youth Association, located in Cascais, which promotes and runs national and international youth activities for young people since 1992. Our secret is to be an open door for new projects, promoting an opportunity for youth to implement their projects and dreams with the support of an experienced and enthusiastic team. We have been working on the promotion of Non-Formal Education. The volunteer will: - Support the daily work at a youth association’s office headquarters; - Public information sessions regarding international mobility opportunities – at schools, universities, online, within local partners, etc.; - Integration in Rota Jovem projects with youngsters (example: Human Rights Education sessions in highschools; workshops; local trainings; meetings with local organisations); - Besides these activities, Rota Jovem is also open to support volunteers’ ideas and personal projects inside the association during the volunteering period.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteer will be living in a shared apartment in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area and has to be ready to share a room with another volunteer, if needed. The kitchen and bathroom will be shared with other people. The hosting organisation will provide a food allowance (covering also the holiday period) to the volunteer, and a daily allowance for pocket money. They will be paid monthly (accordingly) during the first five days of each month. The volunteer will be also provided with a monthly pass for local transport.

🎒 Leisure activities

Rota Jovem will ensure the participation of the volunteer: - in the on arrival training at Rota Jovem (reflection about expectations and objectives) - in a specific training inside the association to implement the tasks; - in the on-arrival training and mid-term evaluation organised by the NA, - in a language course, - other training opportunities at local/national level.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: - Interest and motivation for the themes of youth participation, global citizenship and associativism; - Interest and motivation for the practices and values inherent to Non Formal Education and Education for Global Citizenship; - Enthusiasm and motivation to integrate this specific project, which requires flexibility, public speaking, communication with other young people, dynamism and creativity (although these characteristics are valued, we consider that they will be developed throughout the project, with continuous support from the mentor and tutor) - Motivation to learn
Deadline: Application deadline: 11/06/2024

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).
