📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
We are happy to invite you to join a team of 15 international volunteers for a 30 weeks mobility project (prolongable), with the aim of implementing a wide range of activities in the city of Sighișoara (Romania). The scope of the project is to provide complementary educational programs through non-formal methods for children, young people and adults, to tackle the challenges facing the community and building a more inclusive society. So you will plan, organize and deliver different activities in and for the community, as nonformal educational workshops for students, informational campaigns, summer camps for kids, public events, free time inspirational workshops for adults, digital activities for teenagers. You will also generically help the organization’s team to manage the association strategic development plan for 2023, writing and submitting new projects for E.U. funds, also giving assistance in organizing the Erasmus+ mobilities activities, as youth exchanges and training courses.
🏠 Accommodation on site
As usual in the European Solidarity Corps, you’ll receive a pocket money, that for Romania is fixed in 90 euros per month, and a food allowance of 150 euros per month. You and your colleagues will all be accomodated in a rented building called “The volunteers’ castle”, at 15 minutes walking to the city center of Sighișoara, the hosting organization and the main working places. “The castle” has 9 double rooms, so 2 people will share a room with private bathroom, while the kitchen and the eating area are in common. The travel from Italy and back will be completely reimbursed.
🎒 Leisure activities
You will attend a pre-departure training before leaving Italy, a so-called “on arrival training” a few weeks after your advent in Romania and a “mid-term training” after six months of volunteering. Lessons of Romanian language will also be given on a regular basis. Each volunteer will have a specialized and well prepared mentor for personal support and professional guidance during the implementation of the planned activities, benefitting of planning sessions, topic trainings and skills development. You will learn to be a complete youth worker, and to master the non-formal education methods.
