Aprašymas
*WE DO NOT READ ANY APPLICATIONS VIA EMAIL. APPLY ONLY THROUGH THIS PORTAL* *FOR APPLICANTS OUTSIDE OF EU, READ THE END OF THIS CALL. THANK YOU!* (Update 28.9: We look for more volunteers ready to travel LAST MINUTE as there might be cancellations cos visa issues. We also look for one more volunteer for SOCIAL MEDIA/CONTENT CREATION) The idea of the project is to bring different cultures to rural Finland. And to promote international possibilities to our local youth. In this project we organize 1.) a school visit day full of workshops, 2.) an international activity day gathering over 100 youth to visit our youth center. Work is generally Mon-Fri 9-16 (6+1h for lunch). Can be exceptions. We have excellent outdoor facilities near a national park, surrounded by forests and lakes. Evenings and weekends are free time to do many activities around and in the nature. There is no villages nearby. Prepare to spend three weeks in a beautiful nature surrounded unique Finnish location!

Accommodation is organised in a "volunteers house" near of Metsäkartano Youth Center. The volunteers house is a traditional log house by a lake, with kitchen, common living room area and with showers and an electric sauna. Volunteers live together in the house, in different rooms where 2-4 people share a room. There will be around 14 volunteers (from Spain,Algeria,Moldova,Georgia,Finland,Ukraine,etc...) Food is provided by Metsäkartano youth center, either in our restaurant (usually breakfast/lunch/sometimes also dinner) or by giving supplies to the volunteers to cook in their own cabin.

Volunteers will get guidance to their work from the work leaders. Together with the work leaders the volunteers plan the school visit and the big event at Metsäkartano for the local youth. In addition, there is a support person to help with everything. Applicants can request an extra support if needed but requests must be already when applying.
