PLEASE APPLY VIA OUR ONLINE FORM: https://www.kinderstadt.md/infos/volunteering-esc
The European Youth Educational Center Magdeburg (EJBM) is looking for 30 volunteers from different countries to join our volunteering team from the 1st to the 28th of August 2022. During those four weeks, you will have the chance to live at the EJBM in Magdeburg in an international environment, to organize and accompany the project „European Children's City“ (Kinderstadt).
Within the project children between the ages of 8 and 14 can playfully learn about city life and must deal with democratic voting processes and topics such as social co-existence, work and wages, self-determination and co-determination. In the park area behind our EJBM, only children are in charge! The only adults are supervisors (maybe you?) who will support the children in their play and help them to implement their ideas.
