Inclusion and diversity assistant
Klaster Innowacji Społecznych
Gliwice, Polonia
Descripción
You support young people with fewer opportunities and war refugees from Ukraine in their daily life in Gliwice. Working with our team, you help newcomers settle in, build social bonds and feel part of the community. This builds on our "Mosty nadziei" work with refugees and years of hosting international volunteers. A role for someone who likes people, listens well and wants integration to be real. Join Klaster Innowacji Spolecznych, an ESC host organisation in Gliwice, in daily work with young people with fewer opportunities and war refugees from Ukraine. You build on our experience from Mosty Nadziei and the Silesian Migrant Career Centre. What you do: support daily language practice through relaxed conversations, help organise integration events, offer one-to-one support to newcomers facing everyday challenges, give emotional support and help people settle into a new environment, promote equality and diversity.

Volunteers receive a monthly food allowance (6 EUR per day) and pocket money (6 EUR per day), about 360 EUR per month in total. Travel costs to and from Poland are reimbursed according to European Solidarity Corps distance bands, and every volunteer is covered by the ESC insurance scheme. Some activities take place at our educational centre in Miedzybrodzie Bialskie in the Beskidy mountains; transport for these trips is organised and covered by the foundation.
