About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

This project aims to train young youth leaders with advanced skills and knowledge to design, develop and carry out work camp projects where they are challenged to lead groups that intend to lead other participants from the project idea to its realization and then volunteer in youth projects leading leaders. The main objective is to give young people a more active role in the creation of projects and at the same time contribute to improving the quality of the projects. Through discussions, simulations, role-playing, and artistic expression, participants will share experiences and knowledge about leading a work camp. The topics we will work on will be: • What is volunteer leadership? • Presentations by participants about their volunteer experiences. • Exchange of strategies. • Logistics of a youth project, types of leaders and personalities • The importance of mental health • Elements of positive psychology.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Travel expenses, accommodation and insurance will be paid through Erasmus Plus funding. Accommodation will be provided where the Camp Leader Training takes place. There is a common area, kitchen, multiple bathrooms, three bedrooms, and a roof terrace at the house Casa Jazmín in Sanet i Negrals. Food expenses are covered by De Amicitia.

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteers will have an opportunity to live together in a group of people of different nationalities, so they can learn many interesting things from each other and raise their level of volunteer leadership. Also, it's a great experience of learning especially an international one. It's a project where you can train your skills in leadership, communication, adaptability, organization and teamwork.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Motivated volunteers who really want to lead a project and specially those who have leadership skills to lead international workcamps. Additionally, Spanish skills are very welcome.
Deadline: Application deadline: 16/05/2024

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).
