🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteers will live in a small accommodation owned by Oasi Giovani where they will share the living area with a fully equipped kitchen and bathroom and will have a private bedroom. The accommodation is located in a building adjacent to the Oasi Giovani headquarter, which is a 5-minute walk from the city centre and the train station. The accommodation is equipped with wifi internet access. Oasi Giovani provides a bicycle for volunteers who want one. The association is in contact with a doctor who is available to visit volunteers. On duty, volunteers can eat at the in-house canteen.

🎒 Leisure activities

Volonteers can participate in the weekly staff meetings during which organisational and educational issues are discussed. This is an opportunity for the volunteers to get to know the association better and to learn the daily work of staff members working in the social welfare and educational field. In case of staff trainings that Oasi Giovani will consider suitable for volunteers too, Oasi Giovani will offer volunteers the chance to participate. Volunteers will participate in all trainings sessions foreseen by the Italian National Agency for ESC and in possible training organised by Eufemia.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Oasi Giovani is seeking two enthusiastic young volunteers, aimed at promoting intercultural exchange and EU opportunities for youth. Volunteers will primarily work with children and youngsters, participating in outdoor activities during the summer. Ideal candidates are empathetic, dynamic, curious, and responsible, ready to bring new ideas and set a good example. This is an opportunity for personal growth and to make a difference in the community. This project is for you if you like being time with kids and youngsters because you will spend most of your volunteering time with them.

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).
