The monthly allowance is 558 Euro including food and pocket money and for the local transportation monthly ticket. You can also just buy a bike. Leipzig is a very nice city to ride a bike. If you wish we can as well try to organize a host family. The project is opened for 10 or 12 months. Our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eu.fairbund/
Training during the activity
We will help you find a German language course which fits your needs and level. The volunteer should already have some level of German knowledge (B1 level). You will have a tutor and a mentor with whom you can reflect on your development. You will attend two seminars organized by the National Agency. If you wish you might have an opportunity to give short lessons on the basics of your mother tongue to some groups if we would have some projects with partners in your country. No specific professional background is needed for being a volunteer, just being curios and open-minded.
