Corner Jugend- und Kulturzentrum

Salzburg, Austria

Description

For 25 years our youth and culture center has been welcoming young people for volunteering projects in the beautiful city of Salzburg. Our center is a welcoming space where individuals aged 10-18 can express themselves freely, find support, celebrate their uniqueness and enjoy their leisure time. We offer diverse spaces such as a music studio, a sports room, a kitchen, an outside area, an event room, and a stage and we organize activities like tournaments, games, open stages, concerts, our own radio show, workshops and school support if needed. At our youth and cultural center, we embrace diversity and strive to create a supportive environment where all young individuals can thrive, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. We are proud to be a part of the LGBTQIA+ community, promoting equality and empowerment for all. Join us for volunteering in a welcoming space. Embracing diversity, promoting equality, and empowering young individuals.

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

Local accommodation is provided just 5 minutes walking distance from the center. Also an own bike for the volunteer is provided by the host organization for the duration of the project, which can be used for transport. Furthermore the volunteer receives monthly food money from the host organization.

Training during the activity

There is an On-arrival training and a Mid-term training for volunteers in Austria. If the volunteer is interested in creating radio shows for the center, a radio workshop offered from a local radio station can be visited to learn the basics. All costs for those are covered by the host organization. Furthermore volunteers have the opportunity to visit German language courses during their stay. The costs for the language courses are partially covered by the host organization.

Participant profile

We welcome passionate volunteers who are interested in youth development, cultural activities and inclusivity. Good communication skills, responsibility, empathy, creativity, and the ability to foster a safe and inclusive environment are important skills. Volunteers have the opportunity to develop their own ideas for projects and activities which can be implemented during the "general youth center times". We would appreciate basic German knowledge to be able to communicate with the visitors of the center. Join our team and make a positive impact on the lives of young people in Salzburg.
