About the project

ESC: Support and Promote International Volunteering

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

International volunteering is a unique tool to promote peace, understanding and the European and human values and to directly support local projects. At the same time, volunteers gain a lot from this experience; they return with new ideas, new skills and new friends. To support our international projects in Germany and to promote international work camps and other volunteering projects to young people, we are looking for a volunteer starting in July or August 2023 . Volunteering duration is 12 months. What will be your tasks? • support IBG work camps in Germany (especially our camp leaders or volunteers with special needs, you will yourself become a campleader in 2-3 projects) • support trainings for leaders and volunteers of IBG • run info events about work camps and other IVP in schools, universities, youth clubs and events • other promotion activities for workcamps (e.g. social media) You are very welcome to bring your own ideas!

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be based in Stuttgart, accommodation will be provided. As part of the project you will travel from time to time to other places in Germany to promote volunteering or to support projects. Of course this transport will be covered, as the local transport between the accommodation and the office of IBG. For food you will get a daily budget - during trainings and other projects food will be provided.

🎒 Leisure activities

Beside of the standard on-arrival-training and mid-term-evaluation for ESC volunteers, IBG offers additional training opportunities like international group leader training or a training on inclusion in workcamps. In addition, the IBG team will provide introductions to different topics and organisational aspects. The aim is that you get to know how IBG (and maybe other German NGOs in a similar field) is structured, where challenges are and how we try to develop our organisation. The kind and volume of these sessions depend on your interest.

⚠️ Requirements

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).
What do we provide ?
  • Training before and after the project
  • Health insurance during your project
  • round-trip travel reimbursement
  • accommodation and food
  • pocket money
  • language course
  • Return Week-end
  • Youth Pass and SVI international Volunteer passport
