Resumo: The hosting organization aims at linking to the social housing complexes neighbouring the area. In addition to this specific aim, various projects – e.g. COMMUNITY COOKING, LERNCAFÉ, SUPERAR – focus on easing social tensions prevalent within the district by strengthening solidarity among residents, decreasing social isolation and fostering social cohesion within the neighbourhood. The initiatives offer and create space and opportunity for the residents to express and experience themselves and become aware of their potentials. The organization, however, is more than the sum of these initiatives: It’s a community hub that initiates participative processes.

Moreover, since the organization is located at the arts and culture area and is interested in leveraging the potential of this surroundings, the organization is addressing social issues by the means of participatory arts (at least to some extent). The organization as a whole, aims at empowering the neighbourhood by activating individual and collective capabilities/capacities as well as strengthening local structures and networks.

Tarefas: The volunteers will be involved in organising different opportunities for the residents living around the organization to interact with each other.

There are many people working within the organization and who are split up into different teams. Since the organization is supposed to be more than the sum of the projects based within its walls, we have been focusing on offering possibilities for the people working at the organization to network, engage with each other and develop a sense of community. The volunteers will be involved in offering these opportunities as a kind of feel good managers.
Several international EU funded projects (Erasmus+, Creative Europe) are implemented in and around Kthe organization.

The volunteers will be involved in supporting these programmes. The international working language in all of these projects is English, so the volunteers have the chance to be involved in research activities, the development of concepts and the communication with the international partners (possibly also participation in partner meetings).
