📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

We are looking for a long-term volunteer for the project "House of Resources" (HoR) in Greifswald, Germany. Please read this description in full and check out the mentioned websites for details. Unfortunately, because the project shall start in September, only candidates who do not need a visa can apply. HoR is a project in our colourful and sometimes chaotic house that we call "STRAZE". Possible tasks are the organization of and help with a great variety of informational and cultural events in support of and with the migrant community in Greifswald (e.g. workshops and the cultural café). You may also help with public relations work (social media, website, print products). Please check https://hor-greifswald.de/ and https://turbina-pomerania.org/en/for-volunteers/our-hosting-organisations/ for details about the project and information on how to apply. Sounds good, but you have open questions? Simply write to [email protected]

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accommodation is in a single room in a flat shared with other (international) volunteers. You will receive food allowance each month and are responsible for your meals yourself. It is possible to borrow a bicycle for the duration of your mobility (a deposit must be paid). Please check -- https://turbina-pomerania.org/en/for-volunteers/our-hosting-organisations -- for details. You will also find links to "House of Resources".

🎒 Leisure activities

You will have to participate in two seminarweeks organized by the German national agency: the on arrival training and midterm evaluation. Both take place somewhere in Germany, together with other ESC volunteers. Moreover, we - the volunteering initiative Turbina Pomerania - organize additional seminar in Greifswald and the surrounding region for local and international volunteers. You are obliged to participate in these seminars (20 days in total), too.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are looking for you if you are passionate about social justice, integration and support of migrants and refugees, and sustainable development. We are not perfect, so you don't have to be perfect either. It is most important that you are willing to dive into a self-organized, sometimes stressful, often chaotic, but always team- and solution-oriented, divers and hierarchy-free team in a colourful house full of opportunities. Check www.straze.de to get an idea about your working environment and the many opportunities... Big plus if you speak languages such Arabic, Farsi, French, ...
Deadline: No application deadline

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

Before applying for this volunteering project, you need to enroll yourself at European Solidarity Corps Platform (https://europa.eu/youth/solidarity_en) and specify your European Solidarity Corps Participant Number (PRN).
