Connect & Create at KC Kláštor
OTVOR DVOR
Rožňava, Slovakia
Description
KC Kláštor is a vibrant cultural and community center in the heart of Rožňava, a town in eastern Slovakia known for its historical architecture, proximity to the Slovak Karst, and a peaceful yet open community atmosphere. As a volunteer, you will support the center's team in organizing cultural events, workshops, and community activities for people of all ages. You will be part of a team that runs the accommodation, café, kitchen, and of course, cultural programming, aiming to contribute to the development of the local community. We warmly welcome your own ideas, skills, and cultural perspectives. The center prides itself on an open and inclusive environment where every idea and every person has a place. This is a great opportunity to gain hands-on experience in community development and cultural management, build confidence in working with people, and experience everyday life in a small yet lively Slovak town close to nature.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
We will provide volunteers with suitable accommodation located directly on the host organization's premises, featuring a private room with a shared kitchen and bathroom. Volunteers receive pocket money of €5 per day and a food allowance of €7 per day, and are responsible for preparing their own meals. International travel costs are reimbursed within the set budget, and local transport related to your duties is fully covered.
Training during the activity
Volunteers will take part in the ESC training cycle organized by the Slovak National Agency, which focuses on personal development and intercultural learning. Additionally, our organisation arranges hikes and other activities for volunteers throughout the service period, providing opportunities for social interaction.
