"Inclusion for all" in Obre't'ebre

Activity description

We are Obre’t’Ebre (www.obretebre.org), the coordinating organization for hosting international volunteers in different social projects in Terres de l'Ebre.Obre’t’Ebre is a non-profit, youth association, established in 2005 by a group of ex- European volunteers and young volunteers, aiming to promote universal values like solidarity, tolerance, and respect, through local, regional and international projects and to cover the lack of training and counseling regarding promotion of social values. Volunteers will work supporting our different projects: design informative materials about projects of the organization (leaflets, infographics, presentations), promote projects on social media, help to prepare workcamps for summertime and youth exchanges, and promote the ESC volunteering. The tasks will be mainly during the morning. In the evening a volunteer might have a Catalan language course and other complementary activities. INFOPACK: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/home
