MONDIALI ANTIRAZZISTI

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Mondiali Antirazzisti (The Antiracist World Cup) is a multicultural 5 days long festival which has around 7.000 visitors per day. The main idea of the festival is to promote anti-racism and anti-discrimination through non-competitive tournaments of football, volleyball, basketball, touch rugby and cricket. The goal of these sport activities is to get to know each other and have fun together, not to win. More than 200 teams every year join the Mondiali Antirazzisti and 70 of the teams are mixed: no racist or sexist discrimination is allowed There are many other activities taking place during the festival such as concerts, workshops, debates, summer camp for children. The organisers take care of another important aspect of the event which is low environmental impact, reached thanks to recycling, use of renewable resources and natural local products. For the people of Mondiali Antirazzisti the environmental sustainability is linked to the social justice and equality. Please make sure you share these values before applying for this project Website: www.mondialiantirazzisti.org (English version is available)

💼 What the programme involves

The international volunteers will be part of a bigger team of volunteers helping set up, run and take down the festival. Before the festival the group of the international volunteers will help to construct the marquees, decorate the area, put up signage etc. Typical activities during the festival include cleaning the site and helping with waste sorting, however the past years volunteers have been involved in a number of different activities, according to the festival needs. The volunteers will clean up and take down the site at the end of the festival. The international volunteers will work for around 6/7 hours per day. The work will be done in pairs or small groups in different shifts (to be arranged together with the campleader). Please note that flexibility and adaptability are required, and there might be some physically demanding work from time to time (under the sun or rain sometimes). During the free time the volunteers will have the opportunity to join concerts and sport events in the festival area. International volunteers will have 1 free day, to be arranged with the festival organisers (not during the 5 days of the festival, from 05th to 09th of July).

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers will sleep in shared big tents directly at the festival area. Toilet and washing facilities will be available, camp beds will be provided but you must bring a sleeping bag. Please make sure you are comfortable with basic camping conditions Food will be available at the restaurants/bars of the festival area. There will be no opportunity to cook but different options (vegetarian, vegan, dietary needs) could be available. The volunteers are expected to be flexible and not fussy about the food
