Akkomodazzjoni, ikel u arranġamenti tat-trasport

The volunteers will share a room in a flat located in the centre of Catania at walking distance from the Arci Catania office. The flat is shared with other young people with 3 single rooms, a common kitchen, a washing machine, a bathroom, a living room and a large balcony. All costs related to the house such as the bills and taxes will be covered by the receiving organisation. The volunteers will monthly receive money for food and pocket money (total of about 330 €/month).

Taħriġ matul l-attività

Volunteers will be able to use the official Online Linguistic Support (OLS) provided by the European Commission. Additionally they will have free access to Italian language courses in Catania through one of our associations according to their level. They will also have the opportunity to take part in an official certifying Italian language exam for free, since Arci Catania is a decentralised CELI exam centre. Volunteers will also have two mandatory trainings with other ESC volunteers in the country, one on arrival and the other around the half of the project.

Profil tal-parteċipant

We would like to welcome volunteers who show a strong interest in the main themes of the project and the main areas of activity, who have organizational skills, who are willing to learn and who propose ideas to develop within the association. Administrative skills are also required to support technical/bureaucratic work in the office. Previous organisational experience in social cultural organisations or in the field of other NGOs, and knowledge in the above mentioned issues will certainly help volunteers in a full integration into the project, but these are not essential and necessary to be selected as volunteers. The specific motivation to participate in this project that volunteers can express is as important as its consistency with personal life experience and future plans. Arci Catania is a safe space for Queer and minority groups, a place where we not only fight discrimination but also value every identity and individuality.
