📝 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 a volunteer to organize and lead arts workshops with the local group of youngsters *support the English learning of the local youth exchange group, to design visual materials related with our main activities - posters, videos, publications, support us in the organization of specific events and activities, promote volunteering and European programs, occasionally 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.

🎒 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 Youthpass skills and their own learning, their personal development and on the achievement of their learning objectives.
⚠️ Requirements
The Participant profile: We are looking for volunteers that like arts, that are crafty and motivated to lead art activities. You don't have to be very experienced or a real artist, but it is important to like to create things and open for innovation. As the volunteer will be collaborating in a youth center in a village where the bigger part of the population speaks Spanish only, it is important that you are motivated to learn the language. The type of work our organization does requires that the chosen volunteer has good social skills and is open to lead activities, organize groups and chat with the locals.
Deadline: Application deadline: 23/01/2023
