💼 What the programme involves

This is a 59 days volunteering to involve young citizens/residents of EU in the work of our NGO, promoting education, equality, citizenship & inclusion while supporting our local community. By taking part in this project, volunteers will be involved in: - support EFM in local regional project happening in the season as well as daily office work: - Creation of videos & audio-visual tools for dissemination of our work; - Support different events in the region; - Lead activities together with our local partners (municipality, museums, house of culture...); - Promote their culture in different events; - Organize activities for children/teenagers; Cleaning, repair and repaint different facilities; - Support the maintenance of the EFM building, office and garden as well as support our work connected to the hosting of Ukrainian refugees.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers live in EFM's house, in a small village - Długopole Górne (15 min from Bystrzyca Kłodzka). The house is at 1min distance from a bus stop and 20 min walk to the train station. There are bikes. Housing is in shared rooms, and there's shared WC's and a large equipped kitchen. The house has washing machines, dishwasher and internet. Outside there's a garden and small football and basketball court. EFM covers transport costs regarding the project. Plus, volunteers receive food money & pocket money at the beginning of each week. * EFM is hosting Ukrainian refugees in the same house!*

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteer will participate in an orientation training during the first days of the project, organized by EFM's team. Extra training will depend on the volunteer’s ideas and needs. If he/she/they need exceptional support to put an idea into action, within the project, it will be attempted to provide this training. General support is assured by the mentor assigned to the volunteer. ***In EFM volunteers learn by doing with the staff of the organisation.***

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).
