DYPALL NETWORK: ASSOCIACAO PARA O DESENVOLVIMENTO DA PARTICIPACAO CIDADA
Portimão, Portugal
Description
The project will allow 1 volunteer for a period of 12 months. He/She will support our DYPALL Network Project Management Department in key areas of our work. We are a European network of civil society organisations, municipalities and research institutions dedicated to improving democracy through youth participation. He/She works with EU-funded projects related to youth participation, youth work and youth mobility. The selected volunteer will be involved in non-formal educational activities, support in writing projects and reports, managing events and all related logistics.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
Regarding accommodation, we will rent an apartment for the volunteer, ensuring that he/she will have a single room (or a room shared with another person of the same gender) as well as a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. Internet connection will be provided to facilitate communications with family and friends. The house will be located within the city centre, a short distance from the DYPALL Network's office. Regarding food, we will support the volunteer with food allowance and pocket money (310 euros).
Training during the activity
Together with our partner sending organisation, we have agreed that all selected volunteers must receive training before departure, either in person or online. We will hold an online meeting with the volunteer. In addition to this preparation process, we will hold at least two internal interim training sessions related to the volunteer project and several evaluation sessions, as well as a final evaluation of the project. We also guarantee the participation of volunteers in the training provided by the Portuguese National Agency, included in the training cycle.
Participant profile
We will give priority to volunteers with few opportunities or in situations of long-term unemployment, we will select the volunteers that are included in the list of volunteers registered in the European Solidarity Corps. The volunteer must be dynamic, motivated and enjoy working in an international and multicultural, responsible and friendly.
