Resumo: The volunteers would be active in the youth centre and the daily open activities and the special activities of the season. The youth centre is located in the eastern parts of Mölndal and the visitors are mostly of Swedish ethnic origin. The atmosphere in the youth centre is very friendly. The centre has a dedicated group that works in the café to raise money to go skiing every spring (each group works about two semesters). The area is basically middle- to upper class. The teenagers are mostly open-minded, although a few of them have difficulties connecting to people of other cultures and socio-economic standards. A lot of these attitudes are believed to come from their home environment. We work hard to prevent the youths from developing racist ideas and attitudes. In the youth centre there is no room for such attitudes and discrimination. In the youth centre we have a fully equipped kitchen and we usually bring lunch / dinner from the home and eat together. For lunch we also eat in the nearby school and take the opportunity to socialize with the young people there.

Perfil: Volunteers should be minimum 22 years old because of the youth centers target groups.

Tarefas: The volunteer will be placed in Grevedammet youth center and foremost be responsible for a group of youngsters who formed a photo group. The photo group meets once a week and has so far engaged in studio photography and dark room/ black and white photo using Holga cameras.

The volunteer will be responsible in supporting the group and make an interesting schedule for them. The work would also include visiting the other youth centres in the City of Molndal with the photo equipment and make workshops for other youngsters etc. It would also be possible to arrange other cultural activities.

Grevedammet youth center has music rehearsal rooms and the volunteer can also engage in the different possible music activities. Grevedammet also has a small Skate park and many young people come here especially in summer/spring to skate.
Finally there is a possibility also to work with children with light handicap such as Down’s syndrome in the youth centre, because the youth centre host this group on certain hours each day. The last years volunteers have implemented very fine music projects/concerts with this group which has been very successful and appreciated by all parts.
