Volunteers to work with children and young people - South of Portugal
MOJU - ASSOCIACAO MOVIMENTO JUVENILEM OLHAO
OLHAO, Portugal
Descripción
We are looking for volunteers!!! :) VESSEL - Volunteering as an Engine for Solidarity, Social Engagement and Learning opportunities is a volunteering activity involving several volunteers from different countries, divided by different time periods. The volunteers will be placed for a period of up to 12 months in Olhão, where they'll have the opportunity to experience a totally different culture and way of living, to learn and experience new things, and to use the knowledge and experience gained in their countries so that they can act as a liaison between partner organisations. The volunteers will be involved in the activities and projects developed by the Host Organisation and will be encouraged to develop and implement their own projects/ideas. At the moment, we have 2 different spaces based inside of neighbourhoods, where volunteers will be working with kids and teenagers, helping them with homework and providing a different set of sessions/workshops on a daily basis.
Alojamiento, manutención y transporte
The volunteers will live in a furnished rented flat shared with other volunteers, close from the office and not far from the centre of the town. The flat contains all the necessary amenities and is divided in different rooms, kitchen and bathroom(s). The volunteers will have their own bedroom, a shared kitchen and bathroom(s). A monthly contribution for food will be given to every volunteer. The volunteers will receive a monthly pocket money as stipulated by European Solidarity Corps. This amounts will be payed in the beginning of every month.
Formación durante la actividad
On-arrival and mid-term training's will be provided by the Portuguese National Agency for Erasmus+ Youth in Action Programme. OLS will be the official tool to use to learn Portuguese during the Project. Since the project activities require work and communication with other people, it is necessary and important that the volunteers try to speak in order to perform their duties. For that purpose there will be 1 hour of Portuguese Lessons per week.
Perfil del participante
The volunteer’s selection process is intended to be transparent and open to all involved. There are no preferences regarding gender, age or study areas. However, a special concern is taken on the analysis of volunteers’ expressed interest in working with children and young people with fewer opportunities and at risk of exclusion, since these will be the main goal of the proposed activities. The fact that the volunteer has some experience linked with youth associations is seen as positive for the development of the activities/projects, but it will not be an exclusion point for the decision.
