🏢 About the local organisation
KCAT is currently the only inclusive, multidisciplinary arts organisation in Ireland. We contribute to an evolving Irish culture of art making where diversity will rapidly become the norm. KCAT creates an opportunity for the most extreme diversities to be bridged. For many years we have promoted, facilitated, nurtured and advocated for diversity and inclusion in the mainstream cultural infrastructure in Ireland. In visual art, theatre and dance we are amplifying, facilitating and representing diverse, marginalised and often muted voices in our galleries and on our pages, stages and screens. For the volunteers engagement in theses solidarity activities our objective is to effect positive societal change by the focus on inclusion, while improving their skills through the arts and their competences for personal and professional The general ESC roles are: Assisting the tutors/facilitators and students in the classroom,Supporting courses, projects, performances, exhibitions etc.

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).
