About the project

ESC: Volunteering in a Youth Center in Spain

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Proyecto Kieu is an association based in the village of Numancia de la Sagra. In the last 10 years we have been creating projects for the young people in our area so they could have more opportunities for personal development and growth. One of our biggest project is the Youth centers we manage in the nearby towns. A youth center is a place where young people(14 till 24 years old) can hang out, participate in free time activities, learn and create. These are also the places where we organize most of our projects. Now we are looking for volunteers to helps us: *To organize different workshops, non-formal activities and talks *To design visual materials related with our main activities - posters, videos,publications *To support us in the organization of specific events and activities *To promote volunteering and European programs *Occasionally to help us with administration and office maintainance.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The accommodation is in shared houses with other local and international volunteers of Proyecto Kieu. Usually volunteers also share the bedroom with another volunteer of the organization. To travel to and from their hometown, each volunteer will have a budget depending on where they travel, according to the Erasmus + distance calculator. All local travel needed for the realization of the project activities is covered by Proyecto Kieu. Volunteers also receive food and pocket money at the amount of 300EUR per month.

🎒 Leisure activities

Volunteers receive an on-arrival training organized by our entity that aims to prepare them for the work with young people, give them practical information about life in our area and teach conflict management and cultural shocks. They also participate together in monthly trainings focused on the development of skills likes: teamwork, leadership, communication, creativity and autonomy. Each month all volunteers participate in a tutoring meeting where they focus on their personal development and on the achievement of their learning objectives.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are looking for volunteers who are interested in youth work, between 18 and 30 years old, EU residents. Speaking Spanish would be a benefit, as you will be living in a village where English is not very common. You don't need any previous experience or special skills, but you have to be open-minded, committed to participate in the project from the beginning and until the end, and willing to lead activities and organize groups. As you will be sharing the flat with other people, but will be living on your own, you need to have a certain level of autonomy.
