📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

- ENGLISH VERSION - The Paritätischer Wohlfahrtsverband Niedersachsen e.V. is a non-governmental organisation which provides a wide variety of different offerings in the social sector. The main goal is to help people in need of support in difficult life situations. The 3.400 employees assist and care for old/young people in need, people with disabilities, refugees and people with different illnesses. The Paritätischer represents more than 800 member organisations which carry out more than 1.900 social service offerings in Lower-Saxony. It provides a network for these member organisations and is working actively on advancing social offerings for people in need. Furthermore the Paritätischer Niedersachsen is lobbying for social justice and people without a strong voice in society and politics. - DEUTSCHE VERSION - Der Paritätische Wohlfahrtsverband Niedersachsen e.V. vertritt als parteipolitisch ungebundener und überkonfessioneller Spitzenverband der Freien Wohlfahrtspflege die Interessen seiner mehr als 800 Mitgliedsorganisationen mit über 75.000 Arbeitnehmer*innen und Zehntausenden Ehrenamtlichen in Niedersachsen gegenüber Politik und Öffentlichkeit und macht seinen Mitgliedern ein umfassendes Beratungsangebot. Der Paritätische engagiert sich für benachteiligte, hilfebedürftige und diskriminierte Menschen und steht für Demokratie, Toleranz, soziale Gerechtigkeit und Teilhabe und gegen jegliche Form sozialer Ausgrenzung und politischen Extremismus. Die rund 3400 Beschäftigten unterstützen und pflegen alte und junge Menschen, Menschen mit Beeinträchtigungen, Geflüchteten und Menschen in verschiedenen Notsituationen. Zu den Angeboten vor Ort gehören Ambulante und Tagespflege, Inklusionsassistenz, Essen auf Rädern, Kindertagesstätten und weitere Dienstleistungen. Zudem betreibt der Paritätische 29 Kontakt- und Beratungsstellen für Selbsthilfegruppen im Land. Sie sind unverzichtbare Anlaufstellen für mehr als 4500 Selbsthilfegruppen, in denen sich 80.000 Menschen für sich und andere einsetzen.

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
