ESC: Volunteer in Nordic Labour Mobility and Youth Projects
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Increased Nordic cooperation gives better possibilities for peace and justice in the world. We have worked towards that for almost a hundred years now. The Norden Association is an organization for promoting Nordic co-operation in all fields, officially as well as unofficially.
Nordic Association, founded in 1919, is a politically and religiously independent organization, open to anyone who wants to get involved and work with Nordic issues and Nordic cooperation. The aim of the association is to stimulate and improve Nordic cooperation at all levels, especially in the fields of education, culture, the labour market, industry, mass media, international aid and environmental care.
The Norden Association works with a broad variety of issues. Policy-making, information, friendship-town systems, publications and mobility projects are important issues to the association. We have our own organization for young people between 16 and 30, FNUF. They arranges trips, seminars about Nordic topics and events of special interest to young people. You can find Nordic Association in all the Nordic countries and interacts through the umbrella organization Norden Associations Federal, FNF.
💼 What the programme involves
You will be part of a small dynamic team working with youth’s mobility and participation in Sweden. Your tasks will be mostly connected to the Nordic labour market program Nordjobb, which helps young European citizens between the age of 18-30 discover Nordic countries through seasonal jobs. As a volunteer, you will have contact with both incoming and potential young workers, as well as other partners such as high schools, universities, municipalities and non-profit organisations. You will contribute to the marketing of the Nordjobb program through events, information meetings and social media. Together with a small team, you will work with carrying out leisure and cultural activities for the youth coming to Sweden. You will also support Nordjobb’s team in various tasks such as recruiting administration, day-to-day contact with the youth, and collection of feedback. Travel in Sweden and in the Nordics can occur, and some activities can be allocated in the evenings and/or weekends.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Food and pocket money is paid through the ESC-grant. Travel to and from Sweden is covered, once at the start and once at the end of the volunteering period, (one return trip). You will be assigned a room in a shared apartment or a single-room studio through one of our long-term accommodation partners in Stockholm, with good connection to the office through public transport. You are guaranteed a travel card for the Stockholm area for your whole volunteering period.
🎒 Leisure activities
We define your learning goals together with the support of a volunteering agreement, which you will be evaluating and updating periodically with your mentor. You will be assigned a mentor that follows up your development and well-being weekly, a day-to-day work manager as well as a social mentor. You will participate in obligatory steps of the Training and Evaluation cycle, including an on-arrival training and a mid-term evaluation in Stockholm, organised by the Swedish national agency. Swedish language training is offered in accordance with your language level (i.e. need-based).
⚠️ Requirements
The Participant profile: We are looking for a person with an interest in youth's participation and mobility as well as in Nordic and European co-operation. It is important that you: are responsible and have the ability to independently plan and carry out tasks with the support of your supervisor; have good collaboration and communication skills; are comfortable with speaking in front of other people and leading groups of young people in an inclusive and enthusiastic way. An interest in learning about digital communication and media creation is a plus.

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 ?
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).
This organisation holds a European Solidarity Corps Quality Label.
