7 months volunteering in social fields in Palermo, Italy

Descrizione dell'attività

Our volunteering is a 7 months European Solidarity Corps project, addressed to young people coming from different countries. The project promotes social inclusion, equal opportunities and solidarity values, by involving young volunteers in supporting some local center with people with mental diseases, socially disadvantaged people. The volunteers will also participate in the preparation, development and implementation of non-formal educational activities on different topics (such as citizenship, sport, arts, culture, sustainable mobility, young entrepreneurship, human rights etc) for young people (kids, people in needs, migrants, disabled people, NEETs ecc.) implemented by CESIE and its local network (associations that provide services for kids, people in need, migrants and disabled people). Each volunteer will be involved for 30-35 hours per week (from Monday to Friday). We are looking for volunteers to start the project from June 2024.
