Resumo: "SCI Hellas is the greek branch of Service Civil International, a volunteer organisation aiming to promote peace and international understanding and solidarity through the realisation of short or/and long term volunteering projects as well as the participation in training seminars and international campaigns. SCI believes that all people are capable of living together with mutual respect and without resource to any form of violence to solve conflicts. SCI Hellas is active in EVS since 1999 and has been hosting, co-ordinating and sending organisation.
The activities that SCI Hellas usually organizes include:
(a) international workcamps
(b) long term volunteering services
(c) trainings / seminars on volunteering and related issues
(d) international awareness campaigns.
SCI Hellas is also a member of the Greek International Year of the Volunteer (IYV) Commission. Finally, we are involved in the Youth and Unemployment Working Group of SCI, a network that works with disadvantaged young people through youth exchanges and EVS ST projects.
The project will take place mainly in Athens, at the office of SCI Hellas. During summer workcamps and, if present, youth exchanges, the volunteers will move to the respective locations.

Perfil: "The only requisites for Promovolu volunteers are basic knowledge of English (enough to communicate with no big problems) and computer (internet, mail, word). The main selection criteria will be the motivation to learn about workcamp organization, ways to promote the activities of an organization and more in general team work. No previous experience in the field is needed. According to our experience, the willingness and concrete motivation to learn, together with a certain degree of flexibility, are the perfect ingredients of a good EVS project. The skills needed to develop the tasks will be learnt during the EVS itself.
"
Tarefas: The work of the Promovolu volunteers will be divided into three phases: from the beginning of the service until May (winter phase), from June until August (summer phase) and from September until the end of the service (autumn phase). During the Winter phase the main tasks of the volunteers will assist members of SCI in: - Promotion of SCI and voluntary work to the public via open days, newsletter, etc. - Organization of events with the aim of sharing experience with local youth interested in EVS. - Establishing links with other NGOs active in field of SCI interest. Presentations and visits in situ are included. - Volunteers are encouraged to develop personal voluntary projects in relation to relevant issues (such as Refugees, Human Rights, Conflict Resolution, social exclusion, gender issues, peace education etc.) depending on their interest. In the Summer phase, the volunteers will participate in SCI summer workcamps and, if present, youth exchanges, and assist in the preparation and follow up of those camps/exchanges. The first month (June) depending on the opportunities available and on the interest of the volunteers, they will receive: -workcamp management training, -co-ordinator training, -will learn group dynamics and -conflict resolution techniques. Some time before the workcamp (early June) visits in situ are needed to check the conditions and agree with the co-operating organisation on the facilities that should be provided for the smooth running of the project. The volunteers will participate in those visits too. During the Autumn phase, each volunteer will be involved in Reporting and evaluating the workcamps s/he has participated and the whole project. The volunteers will assist in compiling the statistics of SCI Hellas for the annual report of SCI, in organizing the evaluation meeting of Greek volunteers who participated in SCI workcamps during the summer, proposals for follow up and prepare the 'first' edition of the e-newsletter of SCI Hellas following the exchange season, where there is quite some information to be shared. Volunteers will be trained and supported to develop their tasks either through specific training courses (on topics such as Organisation of open day events, Edition of SCI Hellas e-newsletter, Camp-leader training etc.) or in the form of an ongoing informal supervision and support by the task responsible in SCI Hellas.
