Projektbeskrivning

CATAPA is a volunteer movement which strives for a world in which the extraction of non-renewable resources is no longer necessary. The extraction of such materials always entails major social and environmental impacts and fuels conflict. In working towards global social and environmental justice, we focus on mining issues (ecological disasters, human rights violations, etc.) in Latin America, where we support local communities in Ecuador, Bolivia, Peru and Colombia who are threatened by large-scale mining projects. We are looking for an ESC volunteer to support the CATAPA movement, and in particular the campaigns on Circular Economy & Wellbeing Economy. Tasks will focus on helping with various communication tasks, organising awareness raising activities, editing articles, supporting volunteers activities. The tasks are flexible depending on your learning goals and the needs of the organisation.

As well as covering the travel costs from the volunteer's home country to Belgium including return (beginning and end of project), CATAPA will cover all travel costs incurred as a result of the volunteer's participation in CATAPA's activities.

Utbildning under projektet

The volunteer will be trained to think critically and spread knowledge about these issues and to encourage other young people to become active citizens; and will participate in CATAPA's 'changemakers' programme, involving two training weekends. You will mainly be working in our office team (7 part-time staff + 2 ESC + variable number of interns) which supports the work of the movement. Since CATAPA is a volunteer movement, you will be working closely with enthusiastic volunteers. Importantly, there are a lot of learning opportunities within the day to day work and in trainings.
