Formação durante a atividade
Volunteers participating in the project will be part of a dynamic and meaningful mission focused on empowering children and youth from both refugee and local communities in Gaziantep. Volunteers will be actively involved in organizing creative and educational workshops, such as weekly conversation clubs, art and craft sessions to support mental health, music and dance events, and awareness activities on topics such as environmental protection and awareness, increasing motor skills, social cohesion and inclusion. They will also help provide informal language support (mostly English).
Perfil do participante
We are looking for enthusiastic, open-minded, and responsible volunteers who are motivated to work in a multicultural environment and with disadvantaged children and youth. Previous experience in non-formal education, youth work, or volunteering is an advantage but not a requirement. Volunteers should have a proactive attitude, be willing to learn and share, and demonstrate flexibility in dynamic situations. Basic English communication skills are necessary. Volunteers with creative talents such as music, dance, visual arts, photography, videography, sports, or digital storytelling are especially encouraged to apply, as we provide space for them to develop their own initiatives and workshops. We welcome all applicants regardless of their background and support inclusive participation.
