Generation Transition

Beschrijving van het project

We are looking for a European volunteer who wants to work on the second phase of Catapa's Generation Transition campaign. We are active in the fields of globalization and sustainable development in Latin America and focus on the problems caused by modern open pit mining (ecological disasters, human rights violations...). We support local communities threatened by multinational mining corporations. The mining industry's impact on the social, economic, cultural and ecological level is often disastrous and fundamentally unjust. We are looking for one volunteer who will mainly be focusing on communication tasks and will be assisting the communication working group. Tasks consist of:  (help) writing articles and revising articles, educational tools and manuals  maintaining contact with volunteers, members, students writing their thesis and experts  following-up Facebook, Twitter and updating and editing the CATAPA website  making promotional material such as flyers and posters
