About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The volunteers will be part of the team of volunteers at the Salesian Youth Center Celje. Priorities that volunteers will carry out activities within the youth center itself- assistance and socializing on the playground and in club rooms, work with children and youth, preparation and implementation of activities with children and youth - playing board games, sports activities. Also, during the winter holidays when organizing various activities for the visitor center- both the daily program during the school year and the initial program during the summer holidays. In addition to working with children and young people who visit the center, the volunteers come together and work with a home team of volunteers who come to the center. It is expected that the volunteers will carry out a project (workshops, event, etc.) during the exchange, as they will also gain new knowledge and competences.

Volunteers will be accommodated in furnished rooms with a bathroom located in the same building as the youth center. In rooms are internet too. They can use washing machin with other people living in center. By arrangement, volunteers will have transportation to our center.

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).
