About the project

ESC: Volontariato ESC presso SPEAK (Lisbona)

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

SPEAK is an association that aims to support, promote and encourage among young people a philosophy of universal humanitarian values based on loyalty, fairness, dignity, justice and solidarity, working actively to aid multi-disabilities, fight against discrimination, exclusion and poverty, always rejecting any racial, political or religious commitments, without prejudice to the right of opinion, cooperation and assistance. They are looking for a volunteer whose tasks would consist of: creating and facilitating non-formal education language and culture workshops, preparing their own language and culture sessions with group dynamics and pedagogical materials (with help from the team), helping to improve and develop new pedagogical materials, helping to organize intercultural events with the SPEAK local community, and providing support to the SPEAK community by answering queries and implementing quality control processes.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The travel from Italy to Lisbon and back is reimbursed. The coordinating & hosting organization will provide the accommodation in a flat as close to the office and the city centre as possible. The volunteers will have to share the room with another volunteer/student/young person. They may also – if so, wished by the volunteer – receive a monthly accommodation allowance and be solely responsible for finding and paying for their own accommodation. Volunteers will also receive a monthly allowance of 330€ (180€ regarding food money, and 150€ regarding pocket money).

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteers will attend three training sessions: a pre-departure training before leaving Italy; a so-called "on arrival training" in a few weeks after their advent in Portugal; a so-called "midterm training", around the half of the volunteering experience. Lessons of Portuguese are also provided on the spot.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profil: We are looking for young motivated volunteers aged 18-30, who are open minded, eager to learn about new cultures and lifestyles, as well as to participate in the project activities. It is not required to have any particular degree of formal education, but to have positive and proactive attitude, show tolerance, flexibility, motivation and enthusiasm. In this project, initiative and the capacity to work in a team will be highly appreciated. Any knowledge of Portuguese is a plus, however it is not a requirement.
Deadline: Application deadline: 17/07/2022
