Perfil: "SWIP is opened to cooperate with any partner - host organizations, sending organizations and volunteers. The most important in this project is to us motivation. We would like to cooperate with person who represents positive attitude, is really motivated to learn polish language (as it will be needed to implement some tasks). Volunteer will always do His / Her tasks as a support, not a paid worker, He / She will also have less responsibilities than workers and co - workers in SWIP. Volunteer will be always supported. We prefer to host volunteers for a longer time (at least few months, but we are open for people wh cannot stay with us longer because of reasons independent of them).We don't expect any special skills - of course it would be helpful if volunteer would have some knowledge about computer and other office machines, would be open - minded person who doesn't have difficulties in personal contact with other people.

Tarefas: TASKS FOR EVS VOLUNTEER
As our association is still developing international partnerships volunteer will be involved in help with some everyday work as well as in the promotional activities (in order to promote association, youth possible activities and of course - EVS):promotion of Youth in Action program and EVS in particular - through meetings with youth from the region and potential host organisations and writing evs - blog on our website. We would like to promote YiA program among people who have problems with finding information about it and less opportunities (bacause of their social status or living in rural areas) to participate in those initiatives. We would like volunteer to help in preparing promotional materials - leaflets, posters, presentations and to present it to young people. There is a possibility of creating ""small - EVS - information - centre"" together with database of free placements based on information send by our partner organizations for people who would like to participate in a program, volunteer would also be helpful by preparing and implementing consultations for young people who would like to participate in EVS projects (match - making, preparing applications, help in getting in touch with organizations, etc.). Since we have implemented meetings with youth from the region as a part of coordinated EVS projects, we observe growing interest of young people about EVS. We try to provide information and help to find young people hosting projects abroad, but we realise that it would be more effective if a ""real evs volunteer"" would do it. As a coordinators and youth workers we see it all in different perspective, volunteer is able to present some issues based on a real experiences in a foreign country, by that we are sure that we and those young people who plan to go abroad and realise their own project can avoid many dissapointments;implementing projects in international and national (Polish) partnerships - participation in international youth exchanges and other organized projects, providing some organizational support during those projects (for example preparation of documentation, spreading information, answering phone calls and SWIP's emails, preparing and sending mails, putting some information on our website, arranging meetings, etc.), also participation in international trainings about possibilities of getting financial support for future youth activities; since 2008 SWIP is involved in women - support activities (trainings, workshops, etc. ) which are organised cyclically and knowing the specific of those actions will be also part of volunteer's activities in the association;
preparing application forms for possible future youth projects (volunteer's ideas are welcomed, but we will also expect some help in some activities we already work on), finding partner organisations (also preparing database of those organizations, it will be very helpful and additional support in this field will be given by volunteer because of His / Her knowledge of background in His / Her own country, some international experiences, etc.) and gathering information about possible financial and organizational support (grants, trainings, etc. This information will be also helpful for youth from the region, people who cooperate with SWIP and not always have possibility to find it themselves - it will be great help in promotion of organised activities;
Of course all the needed support will be provided for the volunteer to ensure the level of confidence in all those actions- specially in polish language more intense at the beginning of the project.As we implement many different activities concerning local community, cooperate with many partners, also local volunteers - and by that we create team of people involved in development of our local active community, we want the volunteer to feel like part of this team. We will ensure that by volunteer's participation in our meetings, He / She will also make real contribution into His / Her work by planning it every week, also by giving volunteer tasks we all have - like taking care of the office facilities, also cleaning it. It will surely increase volunteer's feeling of being part of the team.We want to make sure that the project will satisfy hosted volunteer, that is why we are opened to volunteer's ideas. And we will do our best to adapt those activities to volunteer's needs and abilities. As volunteer will work aprox. 30 hours a week (50% - activities in local community and promotion of youth activities, 25% - office work) there will be some space to fulfil it with initiatives, which can be for example those actions which we would like to develop in SWIP in coming future (also 25%):organising trainings and other activities concerning needs of foreigners coming to Szczecin - cultural trainings for Erasmus students, EVS volunteers, artists, etc.;gathering and preparing information which will be helpful for future hosted volunteers, about foreign - friendly policy and places in Szczecin, ways to deal with only polish speaking"" people in institutuions (preparing survival polish dictionary, guide about polish culture, cuisine, traditions, etc.)
