VAZMOZHNOSTI BEZ GRANITSI
SOFIA, Bulgarije
Beschrijving
We are looking for a passionate human rights activists! Come to Bulgaria and take part in our project for 8-12 months! It aims to increase the attention of young people on the "hate speech" phenomenon and its negative influence on society through the methods of non-formal education and gamification. The activities are in the field of human rights education and youth work and will help the participants to become more tolerant of others' needs and ready to accept diversity while interacting in a multicultural environment. The volunteers will develop skills for public speaking, presentations, critical thinking and reflection to counter-combat the far right and nationalistic propaganda depicting life in black and white shades. They will get in touch with more than 2000 young people from across Bulgaria where we will hold workshops, campaigns, trainings, and events for promotion of human rights, tolerance, and solidarity. We will work with our innovative board game BARABAR, too.
Regelingen voor accommodatie, eten, en vervoer
The volunteers will be accommodated in an apartment in Sofia near the office of the organization, the center, and a park. They may share a room with another person of the same gender. The apartment is already equipped with all necessary household items for cooking, washing, etc. Our current volunteers will also be able to assist with getting to know the area. All participants in this project will receive a food allowance and a city transportation card. A monthly pocket money allowance is also provided. Once we select the volunteers, we will arrange the flights and the health insurance as well.
Wat leer je?
All volunteers will join our task-specific training on Human Rights and Non-formal Education that will be provided by the trainers in IOA. Furthermore, a course on Bulgarian Language will be set for the participants.
Wie zoeken we?
We are looking for volunteers who have an attitude towards democracy and human rights; who are curious to learn more about other ethnicities, nations, traditions and customs. The perfect participant in our project will believe that No Hate speech is a cause, worth fight for. Any previous voluntary experience is a plus, as well as activism on a local level or Human Rights youth work. We are ideally looking for someone outgoing who knows the NGO world and wishes to keep being active in it, who'd like to visit schools to spread education. Additionally, design, training or IT skills are welcome!
