Resumo: The host organization is settled in the campus of the university.
The University has over 30.000 students, nationals and internationals, and its campus holds all along the academic years several cultural events, sports activities as well as its regular academic seminars, conferences and meetings in which volunteers are invited to participate in.
Volunteers will spend most of their volunteer time in the Foundation, an institute which develops a specific model of higher education adapted to young people with mental disability.
Also they will be providing support to the activities developed from the Disability Area of the organization, which works for the full integration of disabled students, as well as to promote awareness about disability matters within the university community.
The global aim of the project is to give professional training to young people with mental disabilities, develop their interpersonal skills and their immersion into the labor market. In addition to these activities, volunteers will support other programs such as the elderly support program with aims like to decrease the loneliness feelings and inactivity some elderly people fall into; and activities in the context of international volunteerism as attending seminars, participating in volunteer awareness to students, seminars organization, elaboration of a welcome guide to further volunteers.
Solidarity and intergenerational values are a key stone to the program and match with the priorities of the Youth in Action program.
