Volontariato Europeo in Polonia nell'ambito della multiculturalità e solidarietà

Semper Avanti Opole

10 mesi a partire da febbraio 2021

Semper Avanti Association is a Wrocław-based NGO established in 2001. We are characterized by experience in the implementation of various projects for the benefit of young people.

We operate mainly in three areas:
1. Youth in the labor market.
2. Supporting the development of civil society and youth participation.
3. Broadly understood tolerance and building intercultural dialogue.

Our team consists of active people, willing to take actions for the benefit of others, interested in working with young people, supporting and developing social involvement, involved in developing sensitivity and awareness of cultural differences in communities.
We carry out vocational training (VET) projects by accepting foreign interns and supporting schools in sending Polish students abroad. We host foreign volunteers as part of the European Solidarity Corps. We are the only point in the Opolskie Voivodeship, belonging to the network of Eurodesk information points. Get involved with us, change the city and region!

We invite you to take part in events organized by us, public events or meetings with foreign volunteers as part of ESC.

Some information about Wrocław

Wrocław, located on the islands on the Oder River, is a wonderful capital of Lower Silesia with a very rich past, over 1000 years. It is one of the most interesting and at the same time the most beautiful cities in Poland, extremely attractive for residents and tourists. This capital of the Lower Silesian Voivodeship is the most important cultural, economic, academic and tourist center of south-western Poland!

The project involves hosting four volunteers and jointly implementing a number of activities for:

- human rights.

- local activities.

- civic education.

- promotion of multiculturalism.

- understanding and acceptance of individual cultures.

In the volunteering program, participants will plan, prepare and carry out workshops aimed directly at school youth and students, as part of educational programs implemented by the Association. Indirectly, their initiatives will also shape the intergenerational local community.

Promoting the culture and language of your country, conducting classes in human rights and tolerance, and intercultural communication by the intercultural meetings (online and offline).

The workshops will be conducted in Wroclaw, but also in many other Polish cities, in line with the activities of the association.

Supporting organisation in the daily routine ( like social media, creating content, support office work, helping with writing the projects)
