📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
Project’s aim is to promote international voluntary service and its values such as intercultural learning, active citizenship, solidarity and sustainable development. Our main activities include organising and coordinating various voluntary projects in Poland. We cooperate with local NGOs, libraries, kindergartens, schools, and social centres.
We would like to welcome two volunteers who will focus on either of the two areas: managing and creating audio-visual content for social media and organising multicultural events and workshops promoting European values. The volunteers will also help with trainings, info-sessions and evaluation meetings for future volunteers and camp leaders. In summer, leading and/or visiting workcamps.
The project can be an opportunity to get to know the work in NGO sector and get in touch with volunteers from all-around the world and our partners. They will have a lot of space to realise their own ideas and initiatives, which we will support and help with.
