Euro-Mediterranean Youth Platform

Zavod Voluntariat is looking for EVS volunteer in EVS project »Volunteers for volunteers 2012«

Activity

The volunteer will be involved in the activities carried out by Slovenian SCI branch Voluntariat. During the summer months the volunteer will be participating on international work-camps, help organizing and conducting youth exchanges and other similar projects. During the winter months he/she will help organizing promotional activities, help with the workshops and trainings for volunteers and with the activities for our Club of volunteers (which organizes different social events, workshops and exhibitions, films different promotional and documentary videos etc).

Working hours will be flexible, depending on the activities. The average working hours will be around 6-8 hours a day.

When:

The application will be sent to Slovene National agency on 1st of September of 2011. The project will start on 1st of January of 2012. We expect the volunteer to participate on the project for 12 months.

The group

The volunteer will mostly be working together with the staff of Zavod Voluntariat and occasionally with representatives of partner organizations and local volunteers. There will be two EVS volunteers involved in the project…

Accommodation

The volunteer will have his/her own room in an apartment shared by another EVS volunteer and possibly by other Slovene students.

Location

Most of the activities will take place in Ljubljana, capital of Slovenia. Some of the activities will however take place in cooperation with different organisations in smaller places in Slovenia. Additional activities, mostly seminars and trainings, will take place around Europe.

Who are we looking for:

A reliable, communicative and a very motivated volunteer, who wants to gain new knowledge that he/she could later on apply in future professional and personal activities and situations. It’s very important that the volunteer is used to working in a team, that he/she is sociable, has a sense of humour and is flexible in different situations (e.g.: to propose/invent some additional activities in a time when there won’t be any other specific activities on the agenda and prepared to give an extra hand in a period full of current activities.). Volunteer will also need to have a lot of self initiative, since you will be »your own boss« in coordination and implementation of activities…

Volunteers who have experience, or would like to learn more about web design, graphic design, newspaper editing and video production(filming, editing) are especially welcome!
