📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
Activities under ‘Solidarity with Cultural Heritage’ are to be carried out in the Heritage Department of the City Council of Alzira (based in the Municipal Museum of Alzira - MUMA). The project aims to promote rich cultural and historical heritage of the city of Alzira, including traditions related to Fallas festivities recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO. We also hope that the project will raise awareness of the common European cultural heritage in our community. The volunteer will have an active role in the implementation of various cultural projects and will support the MUMA with everyday tasks (in communication, heritage preservation, preparation of materials and collections, language assistance, etc.). They will also have a platform for forging strong cultural awareness and getting the first-hand experience in conservation. NB! The activity dates are not fixed yet as the project is pending approval by the Spanish National Agency. We expect it to start in Jan 2022.
🏠 Accommodation on site
The accommodation is covered by the coordinating organization. The volunteer will share a fully-equipped flat with other participants and will have their own bedroom. The volunteer receives a fixed amount of a monthly support allowance and pocket money (180 and 150 Euros).
🎒 Leisure activities
The volunteer’s sending organization will share more information on the European Solidarity Corps programme. The volunteer will also participate in the on-arrival and mid-term trainings by the Spanish National Agency. In addition, the participant will have the opportunity to take Spanish classes 3 hours per week.
⚠️ Requirements
The Participant profile: We are looking for 1 outgoing young people between 18 to 30 years old who have a specific interest in history, art and Spanish culture. Applicants who demonstrate strong motivation will be invited for an interview. As an applicant, you should not have taken part in other European Solidarity Corps activities longer than 3 months.
