They'll primarily be working from a social restaurant/ music school of , near the seaside, and in various youth-work activities in the city of The Hague. Volunteers will also help with various summer activities, including summer camps and game/ sport activities, and in support of the international programmes of YMCA Netherlands. Volunteers will be mentored throughout the entire year. Each will have a personal mentor. This mentor will support with their self-development and overall progress in the project. Volunteers are also challenged to set up their own project. They can choose to set up workshops, youth activities, campaigns or something totally different based on a subject they're interested in! In this effort they will be supported by their mentors and project coordinators.
Zakwaterowanie, wyżywienie i transport
Two volunteers will be staying in a apartment in the city centre of The Hague. In this appartment they have the opportunity to cook for themselves. The volunteers receive adequate funds on top of their pocket money to help them buy and prepare their own food. In traditional fashion, participants will be expected to cycle to and from diverse work places, although The Hague also has a strong tram-system as an alternative.
Szkolenie w trakcie działania
Upon arrival the participants receive a string of trainings to help them settle within the Netherlands and the YMCA. This will include an introduction to Dutch culture and habits, Dutch food, public transport, the YMCA and the basics of youth work. On their work places, they'll receive further trainings. Volunteers can also participate in other trainings offered by YMCA The Hague and YMCA The Netherlands, with topics ranging from working with children, to project management and communication. Please note that having control of the Dutch language opens up a lot of new trainings to attend.
