1-Month Volunteering Team in Georgia

Descrição

This ESC Team Volunteering project brings together young people to contribute to local communities through environmental education, outdoor activities, and non-formal learning. The project is implemented in Manglisi, a small mountain town located within Algeti National Park, and in Rustavi and surrounding rural areas. The main aim of the project is to promote solidarity, inclusion, tolerance, and European values by creating meaningful educational and recreational opportunities for children and young people, particularly those living in rural or fewer-opportunity contexts. At the same time, the project encourages intercultural dialogue, teamwork, and active citizenship among volunteers. Living and working close to nature is an essential part of this experience. Volunteers will spend a significant part of the project outdoors, in a natural environment, combining educational activities with hands-on work that supports the local community and the nature centre.

Comparticipação nas despesas de alojamento, alimentação e transporte

Accommodation will be provided in shared dormitory style rooms in Manglisi and in shared accommodation in Rustavi. Volunteers will usually share rooms with four to six people. Bathrooms and kitchens are shared. Bed linen and towels are provided. Food will be organised in different ways depending on the activity period. During camps and specific project activities, meals will be provided by the hosting organisation. On other days, volunteers may receive a food budget and organise meals collectively or individually, according to their preferences. Pocket money of 6 EUR per day is provided.

Formação durante a atividade

The volunteers will receive a pre-departure training, an on-arrival training and language introduction to Georgian langauge.

Perfil do participante

This project is looking for motivated young people, aged 18 to 30 who are interested in living and working in a natural, non-urban environment for an extended period of time. As most of the project takes place in Manglisi, volunteers should be mentally prepared to spend time far from cities and to adapt to a simple, nature-based lifestyle. Volunteers are expected to be patient, creative, active, and energetic, as they will work closely with children and young people. Good organisational skills and a willingness to take responsibility are important, as volunteers will be involved in planning and implementing camps and educational activities. Flexibility is a key competence for this project. Volunteers should be able to adapt to changes, including last-minute adjustments, and remain openminded and solution-oriented. In addition to educational work, volunteers will take part in manual, hands-on tasks such as cleaning, maintenance, planting, and small repairs. A positive attitude towards physical work and outdoor conditions is essential.
