About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The hosting organization is a non-profit, independent youth NGO based in Nicosia, that works closely with young people, aiming to empower them in realizing the societies they want to be living in. You will plan, organize and implement workshops about lifelong learning, advocacy campaigns on quality education and policy making, non-formal education activities, networking events with different local stakeholders, and create a monthly newsletter to inform readers about relevant topics, trends and good practices. You will be supporting the hosting organization in educational projects, and contributing to the 20th anniversary events of the hosting organization, which will highlight the importance of youth work. You will be working for 35/38 hours per week. In case of extra work, you will recover the hours in the same month and these should not be replacing vacation leave.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be accommodated in mixed-gender accommodations: if needed, same-gender roommates will be places in shared rooms. The accommodation is in a very good state and is within walking distance from services, supermarkets, bakeries and coffee shops. There is easy access to the city center through public transportations or cycling. Flats have internet access, basic kitchen equipment and sheets, linens and blankets are provided. You will receive 155€ for monthly food allowance and 6€/day for pocket money. The travel from Italy to Cyprus and back will be fully covered.

🎒 Leisure activities

You will attend three official training sessions: a pre-departure training before leaving Italy; an on-arrival training in a few weeks after your advent in Cyprus; a midterm training, around the half of the volunteering experience. The activities of the project include language courses, trainings and your personal development. You can learn Greek online or through live classes, interact with locals, practice Greek in everyday situations and explore the local culture.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: You must have the necessary competencies and motivation to work with people coming from different backgrounds and with different interests.

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).
