- Support inclusion and awareness-raising activities.
- Assist in educational and training activities.
- Help organise workshops, events and leisure activities.
- Help professionals prepare materials.
- Support day-to-day and basic administrative tasks.
Tasks will be agreed progressively, so you can discover different areas of the organisation.
Guided by our professionals, you will develop skills such as teamwork, communication and intercultural competences.
