📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
We are looking for 2 volunteers, for a project managed by an interdisciplinary team: it contributes to the improvement of the living conditions of people in the Province of Cádiz, especially those at risk of social exclusion (foreigners, former inmates, homeless people, people with disability), and unemployed citizens in general. You’ll be mainly working in the media and communication department of the hosting organization, taking corporate-style photos and creating videos, preparing posters and flyers for different activities, and collaborating with other local organizations in social communication advertising. But you will also organize different activities related to social transformation and dynamization, leaving your footprint on local community: language courses, workshops about volunteering, awareness campaigns, participation in summer camps with children from underprivileged backgrounds, helping in creating C.V., and personal projects acccording to your skills.
🏠 Accommodation on site
You will live in a private room, inside a shared fully equipped apartment with three rooms and two bathrooms. All the expenses in the house (electricity, water, gas) will be paid by the hosting organization. The project will provide you an allowance for your food and a pocket money, for an amount of around 330 euros per month. The travel from Italy to Spain and back will be completely reimbursed: locally, you will receive a bicycle to move around. You’ll get the health insurance agreed with the European Solidarity Corps.
🎒 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 Spain and a “mid-term training” after six months of volunteering. To participate in this project will provide you the opportunity to share experiences with other young people in search of employment, training, learning and improvement of their technological skills. Another of project’s aims is to empower you, bringing and developing your own ideas and initiatives into the real life.
⚠️ Requirements
The Participant profile: To be considered for this volunteering position you must be an open-minded, creative and motivated person, who is really passionate about graphic design.
