Resumo: This project gives the opportunity to the young volunteers to discover the Italian social and health system and to gain knowledge and competences in this field during specific training sessions as well as through the everyday work with our staff (educator, social assistants) and volunteers. Furthermore, they will work in direct contact with the local community and will develop important social competences for their future personal and professional life. The contact with the Italian culture as well as the other evs volunteers’ cultures will enhance the young volunteers’ intercultural learning, which will contribute to their personal and social development.

Tarefas: The EVS volunteers will be inserted mainly in the activity of the Senior day care centre. At the beginning they will have some time to get to know the organisation, meet the staff and the volunteers, get used to the atmospheer and have a general view of our activities. After this period, they will organise their weekly schedule with the tutor. The EVS volunteer’s sensibility and capacities will be taken into account when planning the activities. The role of the volunteers will evolve gradually as they integrate more and more the association: from a supporting role to a more and more active and autonomous role, with the possibility to create their own personal project, in agreement with the organisation.

The EVS volunteers will never be substitutes for employees or volunteers of our association. They will always and exclusively be there as a support and auxiliary person. Besides, the psychologist of the organization is always available on request of the association’s staff and thus also of the EVS volunteers.
