Resumo: The host organization is a non-governmental organization recognized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the European Union. The main objective of the organization is to permanently transform a community, transferring professional and economic skills using interventions of a finite duration through development cooperation projects sending volunteers abroad and in Italy through activities of global citizenship education.
The organization works in Africa and the Balkans, through the work of international volunteers and in collaboration with local agencies and staff managing projects of development cooperation across a number of fields: educational, social and healthcare, energy and microcredit.

In Italy the organization, through skilled educators, works with children, adolescents, teachers and educators on issues such as global citizenship, knowledge of self and others, human rights, migration and environmental sustainability, encouraging interaction and stimulating "best practices" that are transferred from the local context into the global one.

The organization perseveres in the belief that education and training are fundamental elements of citizenship and democracy, equality and freedom. For this reason the organization is committed to the creation of schools and vocational training centers in places where these services and facilities are lacking or are insufficient, in countries where young people need the right to education and the future to be available to them. For the same reason, also in Italy the organization organizes training courses for migrants, occasions of information and awareness-raising open to all citizens and, for over 20 years manages activities of global citizenship education for schools of all levels, which deal with themes of interculturality through participatory courses and workshops.

Perfil: Please note, this EVS more suitable for more mature persons with some experience working with kids or other social work although such experience is not required. Volunteers should be active in approaching the community, seek active involvement, be independent to organise their leisure time, be openminded about new culture and subcultures. The required ideal volunteer is a person who has a passion for international cooperation and inter-culture. He/she must be ready and able to adapt to a cultural context in which the core values are those of cooperation.

He/she should be flexible and tolerant, open to communication and the ability to work in team. The volunteer must have a great motivation which will be the essential requirement in the selection phase of this EVS project. Also, previous experience in the field of education in general and non-formal education and in the field of communication will serve as the title of preference.

The characteristics that we consider fundamental for the specific activities of our project are:
- fewer opportunities (cultural, social, economic and geographical reasons),
- interest in the themes of the project,
- usefulness of taking part in the proposed activities for the future life of the candidates,
- previous experience of working with children and youth is very welcome, - will to do and learn,

-analysis and definition of objectives and events,
-support in project preparation, implementation and evaluation, -communication with the partner organizations in relation to joint projects and various initiatives. Given the wide variety and complexity of the duties involved we don’t believe that every volunteer will every week implement all the activities available but will focus on some of them.

For this reason we have divided the activities in training, evaluation and language course on the one hand and the service-specific activities on the other hand. Among the service-specific activities we divided office tasks, such as preparing, collecting materials and evaluation, and field tasks such as the implementation of courses, presentations and meetings.
