Resumo: The EVS volunteers will be hosted in province that is particularly receptive to volunteering activities thus they find a perfect incubator that creates the ideal conditions for the growth and the informal learning of the EVS volunteers involved in volunteering activities in this area.

The organization thanks to its experience and its connection with the local dimension is fully aware of the huge and beneficial impact that the EVS could have and is keen to exploit this tool strong of its international and local network of partners.
The connection between the organization and the territory is very strong and this close relationship with the local community foster the intercultural exchange and learning of the volunteers and enrich the EVS experience in general allowing a fast integration in the local dimension and concrete and fitting activities, interconnected with the social texture. Particularly the organization established formal agreement with several local ( and regional (several Town Councils and the Region) institutions and cooperates with several dozens of non-governmental organisation that are active on specific field (migrants, environment, intercultural, social inclusion, …).

The rich intercultural dimension of the city further contributes to make even more fertile the context in which the EVS project will take place. In fact since several years represents an attraction point for immigrants of various nationalities. This contributes to enrich the social context, continuously changing it and creating new challenges to confront with.

It’s a trend that doesn’t seem to change and confirmed by the last data from the Statistic Dossier of the Provincial Observatory on Migration. The ones that settled inthe city and province during the years, have create various associations born and managed by themselves in first person and with which the organization actively cooperates in several activities and initiatives. This with the aim of creating a more just and inclusive society. The common denominator is the exploitation of the diversity and of the peculiarities that define each single individual as such.

The volunteers will be actively embedded in this multiethnic and stimulating environment by exploiting the activities and the network of contacts of the organization. This will enable them to approach this context and act as protagonists thus making the most of the unique opportunity of the EVS. This close contact with the local community and the active participation in volunteering, informative and formative activities carried out by the organization will widely enhance the growing possibility for the volunteers. Moreover this will have a beneficial impact in the process of learning the Italian language that will be speeded and facilitated by the close contact with the local community.

The EVS volunteers will be hosted in an ad hoc house that they will share with other volunteers thus facilitating the socialisation and the integration. The volunteers will autonomously manage the apartment, free to exploit the opportunity of personal growth linked with the chance to live with other youngsters coming from different European countries. This accommodation will enable the EVS volunteers to have a direct contact with the local community as well in the everyday life activities.

Moreover the organization is active in the LLP and hosts volunteers and interns in the framework of Leonardo Da Vinci and Erasmus Placement. The presence of these youngsters beyond stimulating beneficial synergies guarantees an even wider impact and valorisation of the EVS experience and a richer intercultural dimension. The city is strategically located in the Italian geography and it’s an important railway hub. In fact from the city it’s possible to reach by train Milan (200 km) in one hour, in a bit more than two hours, Florence (100 km) in 40 minutes and Venice (150 km) in about one hour and a half.
Please explain:
• what you can offer to volunteers in terms of Service and learning opportunities,
• what will be the role of EVS volunteers in the Host Organisation,
• the activities in which the volunteers could be involved and the activities the volunteers could create in your organisation. Please give examples of typical activities for the volunteers.

Perfil: The ideal EVS volunteer should stand out for dynamism, proactivity, determination, and should have a deep interest for the non profit world. Moreover the volunteer coming from disadvantage backgrounds will be particularly considered since the work on social inclusion that the organization carries out in cooperation with several associations and institutions.

The volunteers with previous experience in the volunteering and third sector and that are willing to grow in this field are particularly welcomed. The desire to do, learn, and put themselves in the game will help the volunteers in making the most of an EVS experience in the organization.

No discrimination (social, economic, sexual orientation, religious, cultural …) will apply to the recruitment phase. We believe is important to widen the opportunity to live an international volunteering experience to every youngster, especially the ones with fewer opportunities.
the organization assure a complete transparency during the recruitment phase. This will be achieved sharing the selection criteria and the result with all the candidate volunteers and the sending organisations interested.
age: 18 until 30 years old

Tarefas: The EVS volunteers are involved in the local volunteering activities organised by the organization and will cooperate with the organization´s volunteers and staff . The volunteers are followed and guided by a supervisor and, depending on the specific EVS project, collaborate and are supported by other local volunteers and internal responsible.. They will communicate with the responsible of the working group and with the other volunteers that belong to it. The role of the volunteers will related to the support, organisation and realisation of specific volunteering, informative, cultural, etc., activities. Depending on the project the volunteers could have on operative role related to a specific theme or a transversal role related to a set of activities. In both these cases the responsible for the theme or the set of activities guides the volunteer in close contact with the EVS supervisor. The volunteers will never carry out tasks of the professional employees and it will be avoided to inappropriately responsibilise them through the constant coordination by the organization responsible.

Activities
The activities in which the volunteers will be involved depend on the specific EVS project and will always be related to specific and well outlined tasks. The organization is very well establish in the territory and carry out regularly informative and ludic activities in collaboration with local bodies and institutions. In particular in the last year the organization has organised interactive workshops, raise awareness meetings and intercultural events regarding the European dimension with ex-offenders involving them in intercultural youth exchanges, the organization organises regularly movie exhibitions, practical laboratories (e.g. recycling, cooking, …) with the Intercultural Centre Zonarelli involving young migrants from first and second generation. From the beginning of March 2011 the organization has started up YouMob front-office with the local council. This cooperation besides the front-office activities run by the organization staff has led to the development of various public activities and events like info days with freshmen and Erasmus students, intercultural meetings and workshops, events on European mobility, ludic and ludic events, etc… Activities in which the EVS volunteers will be
involved. Moreover in June 2011 the organization has developed with 4 high school from the city a two-year project on awareness raising related to the European dimension, with a formal part of the activities in charge of the teachers and the informal education plan (e.g. workshops, laboratories, role games, …) that will be organised by the organization staff and volunteers.
