The project is looking for a motivated volunteer who is interested in working with young people from diverse social and cultural backgrounds. The ideal participant is open-minded, respectful, and tolerant towards different cultures, lifestyles, opinions, and behaviors. The volunteer should feel comfortable communicating and expressing themselves in front of groups of young people, as well as leading or co-facilitating activities, workshops, and events. Confidence in sharing ideas and engaging participants actively is highly appreciated. We are looking for a communicative, proactive, and creative person with a positive attitude towards teamwork, solidarity, and non-formal learning. Curiosity, flexibility, and willingness to learn new skills are considered important qualities.
