📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Stowarzyszenie Jeden Świat, eng. One World Association (OWA) was registered in 1994 by a group of very motivated young volunteers and local activists. Since then it has become a well-established voluntary organisation, appreciated and recognised by both national partners and local, grassroots communities.
Our mission is to promote the idea of peace and understanding between people through international and national volunteering and non-formal education programmes. We are the Polish branch of Service Civil International (www.sci.ngo), a global movement that has been working for peace for more than 101 years now.
Our actions are based on the belief that one of the most important things that we all need to gain today is the ability to cooperate peacefully between people, communities, cultures and nations. Therefore, together with volunteers and partners, we implement the vision of our Association by educating about the modern, diverse world and building mutual trust between people, regardless of their identity, physical abilities, orientation, or national, ethnic or religious affiliation.
Working with the youth is very dear to our hearts, as it allows us to shape a generation that will work for a peaceful, united Europe (and beyond).

💼 What the programme involves

The Regional Center for Social Policy (ROPS) is a public institution with a crucial social mission-building a high-quality place to live for all inhabitants of the region regardless of the country of origin.

ℹ️ Additional information

The volunteer will have Polish classes. Volunteers also participate in the on-arrival and mid-term training delivered by the National Agency. Once per month, Stowarzyszenie Jeden Świat, leader of the project, will organize training for all the volunteers, hosted by partner organizations. It will be a good opportunity to get to know each other and find out more about global education, intercultural education, etc. More trainings will be offered by the Center and Stowarzyszenie Jeden Świat.

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).
