BDC will provide orientation training upon arrival, language classes, regular evaluation meetings and coaching sessions. CirKusKus will provide the initial circus pedagogic training, & the mentoring sessions regarding the volunteer's artistic project. We value the learning by doing approach, where the volunteers will be asked to complete tasks and the mentors will take time to reflect, gain feedback & insight. The volunteer will attend the obligatory On-arrival and Mid-term training organized by the National Agency & at the end of the project gains the Youthpass certificate.

Профил на участника

We're looking for a volunteer with a clear interest in contemporary circus who enjoys working with kids. This role within the organization relies on the ability of the participant to work independently. The participant should be engaged and creative, bring new ideas for activities and acts, enjoy movement, be communicative, and be comfortable with flexible working hours and days as life in the nonprofit sector can be unpredictable. Prior knowledge of circus is a plus as are skills in graphic design, social media, or project management. A volunteer will also participate in BDC's events.
