disABILITY AWAREness
KINITRO AMKE
Moschato, Greece
Description
Join KINITRO in Athens for a 60-day European Solidarity Corps experience focused on disability awareness, inclusion and active citizenship.
Volunteers will receive intensive training and then help plan and facilitate interactive disABILITY AWAREness workshops in schools, workplaces and civil society organisations.
Using non-formal education, simulations and discussion, you will support participants to better understand disability, accessibility, equity and inclusion.
You will develop communication, facilitation, teamwork, organisation and leadership skills while working in an inclusive, intercultural environment.
Volunteers with disabilities and young people with fewer opportunities are strongly encouraged to apply.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
Accommodation will be arranged by KINITRO in a safe, comfortable and accessible location close to the organisation in Moschato, Athens.
Volunteers will have suitable living conditions and their dietary needs, allergies or restrictions will be taken into account.
KINITRO will provide practical support for local public transport, airport arrival/departure and transport connected to project activities.
Training during the activity
Volunteers will receive intensive training on disability, accessibility, inclusion, appropriate terminology and non-formal education methods, together with a Volunteer Guide, workshop materials and presentations.
They will join KINITRO’s monthly “Labyrinth of Training”, receive orientation on life in Greece and communication tools, and have ongoing mentor support.
Learning outcomes will be reflected on and documented through Youthpass/Europass.
