💼 What the programme involves

"Haciendo Barrio II" (Making the Neighborhood II) gives continuity to our previous volunteering projects, working on the growth of both the volunteers and Viaje a la Sostenibilidad organization, through local activities and international mobilities. The project aims to promote the values of solidarity and respect in the multicultural neighborhood of San Pablo (Zaragoza) by creating a more just and equal society in which pluralism, non-discrimination, tolerance, and equality prevail. We are looking for 2 volunteers. 1. Providing organizational support. Day-to-day work in the office in the organization of mobilities (international projects) and local workshops (20%). 2. Bicycle workshop, mechanics, excursions and work with youth. No previous knowledge of bicycle mechanics is required, just motivation and interest. In addition, the volunteer is expected to take part (20%) in other activities organized by Viaje a la Sostenibilidad.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteers will be placed in individual rooms in a shared flat with other volunteers. The food money will be transferred to the personal accounts of the volunteers at the beginning of each month. As for the transportation each volunteer will receive a bike to use for the duration of their volunteering. Everything is in walking distance.

🎒 Leisure activities

Each volunteer will receive basic training at the beginning related to the organization and its structure as well as to their specific post. During the volunteering, they will receive additional training when needed from the staff of the organization. The national agency will provide on arrival and intermediary training courses for all volunteers where they will be able to meet volunteers from all of Spain.

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).
What do we provide ?
  • Training before and after the project
  • Health insurance during your project
  • round-trip travel reimbursement
  • accommodation and food
  • pocket money
  • language course
  • Return Week-end
  • Youth Pass and SVI international Volunteer passport

Before applying for this volunteering project, you need to enroll yourself at European Solidarity Corps Platform (https://europa.eu/youth/solidarity_en) and specify your European Solidarity Corps Participant Number (PRN).
