Description
We are looking for a volunteer to work at youth centres run by Örnsköldsvik municipality, the culture and leisure department. The volunteer will help in everyday operations, with various tasks such as leading or assisting in various activities for teenagers and young adults. The aim is to create something meaningful to do after school and to learn more about Europe. There is a wide range of possibilities for a volunteer to develop their own ideas and create their own projects, perhaps in the area of arts and crafts, music, sports or outdoor life. The theme depends on the volunteer’s own skills and interests. Our aim is to give our volunteers maximum opportunity for personal growth and we encourage them to bring their own ideas into the project. The volunteer will be working together with, and get support from our youth leaders.
Modalités d'hébergement, de restauration et de transport
The volunteer will be accommodated in a fully equipped studio apartment located in the centre of town. The apartment has its own private bathroom and a small kitchen area. There is a big, shared kitchen and laundry room that you share with other volunteers and students. You will be given a monthly allowance for food and private expenses. Most things are within walking distance but you need to have a driving license to be able to go to the youth centres which are located in a rural areas. If needed, we provide training in how-to drive-in winter climate and how to stay safe on icy roads.

The volunteers will be given opportunity to learn Swedish language through online training and in physical classes at a language school. The volunteers are expected to participate in the on-arrival and midterm seminar arranged by the Swedish NA.
