Working with kids and young people
INTERNATIONAL SCOUT CENTRE RUSTAVI
Rustavi, Georgien
Beskrivning
Hosting organisation offers volunteering opportunities in youth work and the daily operation of a scout centre. Volunteers will support non-formal educational activities for children and young people, assist in organising local and international events, and contribute to the promotion of volunteering and intercultural learning. In addition to their main role, all volunteers will participate in rotational tasks such as reception support, gardening, and general maintenance of the centre. The project follows a learning-by-doing approach, encouraging initiative, creativity, teamwork, and personal development. Most activities take place in Rustavi; however, some programmes, events, and projects may be organised in different locations. Volunteers should therefore be flexible and willing to occasionally travel.
We are primarily looking for volunteers for 10 months, starting in October. However, It is also possible to start in January.

Logi, mat och transporter
Accommodation, food allowance, pocket money, and health insurance are provided in accordance with the European Solidarity Corps programme regulations.
Volunteers will be accommodated in shared apartments located in the city centre of Rustavi.

The apartments provide all essential furniture and household appliances necessary for comfortable daily living.

Deltagarens profil
We are looking for motivated, open-minded, and proactive volunteers who are eager to learn, contribute, and grow in an international environment. The ideal volunteer is flexible, adaptable, and comfortable with occasional changes in plans. They should have a positive "can-do" attitude, be willing to step outside their comfort zone, take initiative, and learn through experience. We value people who enjoy self-learning, teamwork, intercultural exchange, and are open to supporting different tasks when needed.
Previous experience in volunteering, youth work or working with children and young people is an advantage but not required. Motivation, responsibility, and willingness to learn are the most important qualities.
