AtivArte
ASSOCIACAO SOCIAL RECREATIVA JUVENTUDE VILA FONCHE
Arcos de Valdevez, Portugal
Description
AtivArte is a long-term European Solidarity Corps volunteering project hosted by JVF in Arcos de Valdevez, Portugal. We are looking for 3 motivated volunteers who want to use creativity and art to work with local children and young people. No professional artistic or teaching background is required – only willingness to learn, share, try new things and collaborate with others. Volunteers will help develop meaningful and participatory activities, promote intercultural dialogue and mutual learning, and strengthen community life. Throughout the project, they will be supported by an experienced youth work team, have the chance to explore rural Portugal and contribute to local initiatives. The project supports the development of personal, social and language competences while increasing the visibility and impact of JVF at local and European level.
