ACTIVITY LEADER PROJECT

Funkibator Ideell Förening

Funkibator Ideell förening

Växjö, Sweden

Description

A few years back the SIP Network bought a big house and the vision has been to be an activity house, called Mästeriet, which is open for the public and civic society where we are hosting activities such as yoga, artwork, gaming nights, organizing meetings for associations and municipalities, children’s activities and birthday parties. The volunteer will act as an Activity leader; plan and lead their own activities, support other leaders in their activities and help prepare before and after the activity. Examples of tasks: -Support other leaders in their activities; socialize with participants, help with instructions ect -Organize your own workshops and activities -Prepare rooms and equipment for activities lead by others; physical or online -Keep in contact with activity leaders -Open and close our facilities on evenings and weekends -Create social media posts -Help create an inclusive environment where everybody is welcome -Participation in joint projects and activities

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

The pocket money will be 180 euros/month and the food money will be around 2500 SEK/month. The volunteer will live in a shared house/apartment with other volunteers, students or workers. He/She will have a single room and share the bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen and other common areas. There is Wi-Fi in the accommodation. The housing is either situated inside the city of Växjö or in the surrounding towns of Växjö. The volunteer will be provided with a yearlong bus card or a bicycle to travel from home to the office, depending on the distance in between them.

Training during the activity

The volunteers will participate in the obligatory trainings of the National Agency: the arrival training and the midterm training. These are usually arranged in Stockholm.
