About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Ufficio Progetto Giovani is the Youth Center of the Municipality of Padua, offering services and initiatives in favour of the local youth. We are searching for 1 volunteer for the Volunteering ESC project “YEP! Youth Empowering Padova… and beyond” - Art & Creativity, which will take place in the Creativity area of the office. The volunteer will have the possibility to have an artistic and cultural experience within a shared artist studio project (MAC Studi d’Artista), where he/she will be able to collaborate and share experiences, practices, skills with other Italian artists. They should be able to organise workshops and laboratories, in relation to his/her own art practice, for local youngsters and adults; moreover, he/she could be involved in holding linguistic and cultural interactive workshops in the schools of Padua or in the office.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers will be hosted in a flat rented by the Municipality of Padova and located in the city of Padova. The volunteers will have their own bedroom and will share the common spaces (kitchen, bathroom…) with other ESC volunteers. Monthly bus-tram tickets will be provided by the office, and they will be provided with a bike, which is the most advisable way to move around the city. Pocket money and food allowance will be transferred to the volunteers at the beginning of each month.

🎒 Leisure activities

Volunteers will participate in two trainings organised by the National Agency: the on arrival training and the mid-term evaluation. The supporting/sending organisations will take care of the pre-departure training and the final evaluation. Specific mentoring sessions and trainings will be scheduled by the Progetto Giovani office. The volunteer will participate in specialised consultancy, training and mentoring for artistic practices, curatorial studio visits and transdisciplinary meetings held with experts in the artistic sector and researchers. They will attend an Italian language course.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are looking for self initiative, motivated, communicative, socially engaged volunteers, interested in art practices and themes related to contemporary artistic research and socio-cultural processes. It is expected that the volunteer can work autonomously on his/her own research and projects, able to manage time and activities and propose personal initiatives in agreement with the project staff. Intermediate Italian language is desirable. The volunteer will have to bring his/her own technical equipment, should he/she need it to develop his/her artistic research.
Deadline: Application deadline: 15/12/2023

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).
