Descripción de la actividad

This long-term project in the low-threshold organization called Kaspian aims to help children and youth to find their way of life. They support community life in the Bratislava neighborhood called Petržalka and provide counseling for parents in the field of education in which a volunteer will participate. A participant will assist youth in the Kaspian Club where they can come freely for advice, help, and just for having fun, filling their leisure-time meaningfully. Children can engage in preventive and participatory activities organized by the working team including a volunteer. Kaspian is dedicated to informal education and offers a basic guidance in topics children and youth are worried about or interested in. The club is intended for children and youth of ages 7-23. Services are free, without registration, and anonymous. In the club you just need to follow the easy rules, so everybody feels the good and safe space.

Alojamiento, manutención y transporte

Bratislavské dobrovoľnícke centrum (as hosting and coordinating organization) will provide an adequate place to live - a room furnished with basic equipment in a shared flat or house together with other ESC volunteers. The room can be shared too with max. one more volunteer. BDC is responsible and provides a volunteer with pocket money, covering food, local transport costs and travel arrangements to and from Bratislava, according to the standard of living in the hosting country.

Formación durante la actividad
