About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Are you ready to get familiar with many different activities in Åmål? Are you an open-minded person that likes to be in many different locations? If so, we believe that our new position is for you! The main focus for the volunteer will be youths and interacting with them. Examples of activities: - Be at the local secondary school to meet with the students, help out in the school cafeteria and arrange break activities but also teach them about the European Solidarity Corps and his/her culture and language. - Be active out in the school corridors talking to the students in order for them to talk more English. - Support teachers occasionally in classrooms. - The volunteer will also support other parts of the municipality, mostly during school holidays. - Supporting on occasion Europe Direct Fyrbodal’s activities towards youth. The volunteer is encouraged to create their own projects that they would personally oversee with the support (if needed) from their work mentor.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteer will share a centrally located apartment with two other volunteers. It has a private bedroom for each person and a shared kitchen, bathroom and living room. The apartment is equipped with Wi-fi and a TV. The project lasts 12 months and the volunteer will have two holiday days off each month, in addition to the Swedish bank holidays. The volunteer gets monthly pocket money and food allowance to buy and cook his/her own food. Åmål is a small town where everything is within walking distance and the volunteer will get a bike to use as well.

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteer will participate in an on-arrival training and a mid-term training in Stockholm held by the National Agency in Sweden and meet volunteers from other Swedish projects. Possibilities to partake in digital trainings via Salto Youth might also be an option.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: The secondary school can at times be very noisy and rowdy, therefore it is important that the volunteer can handle that kind of work environment. Further, we are looking for a volunteer who enjoys working in a team with people from different backgrounds and needs. Who is flexible and creative, enjoys both office work (planning, meetings, brainstorming) but also enjoys participating in, and organise activities with young people and other more practical tasks. Who likes to hold and create activities and events. If you are interested in this positions, please send us an email with your CV and mo

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).
