Resumo: We would like to welcome two brave and mature EVS volunteers to spend 12 months.
The volunteers will get a unique first hand experience with the beautiful nature and culture. It is expected that the volunteers are motivated to learn how to speak Danish (perhaps even Greenlandic). The work will be a combination of social field, social medias, coordination, networking and giving speeches about intercultural perspectives.
Campus is a high school based in the city in the Southern. The school has 400 students, most of them between 15 and 20 years of age, there's the possibility of using the school's houses for accomodation. In these houses the students eat, do their homework and spend time with their friends after school. The EVS volunteers will be involved with activities related to this.
We are making a big effort to make the school a nice place to study and live. We have a student cafeteria for the older students where they eat in the evenings. There is a place to read newspapers and use computers at night and on weekends. Our music room and fitness room can be used on weekends by appointment with the students who have keys to the room. The students can borrow canoes and kayaks for a trip on the lake in the summer time (June-August) and in winter time you can borrow skates and skis.
Perfil: We are looking for mature and highly motivated candidates, preferably above the age of 21. In order to live among the students at Campus, the volunteers need to be social. It is important that they are motivated to learn about the culture by living it out, and socializing with everyone around him/her. Experience with nordic languages is a advantage. The volunteer should be interested in learning the language Danish (second language in Greenland). We are looking for volunteers with interest and skills in the fields of story telling, social work, communication, networking, social medias and coordination.
Age: 21-30
Tarefas: The volunteers will be expected to work fulltime 37 hours/week. This time includes Danish language classes. The rest of the time will be devided equaly between Campus and other organization. Some weeks might be fucussing on th organization other weeks on Campus. This partnership, will give the volunteers a good posibility to both have a solid foundation in the local community, presented by Campus, but at the same time have tasks challenging them in organisational work related to the intercultural field, presented by th other organization.
The first week of their EVS exchanged, where they will live with a local host family. This week of introduction will help them understand the organisation and give them the chance to meet the colleagues and some of the volunteers.
They will also be introduced to the responsibilities they are going to have during the year to come. At Campus the volunteers, will mainly have tasks in helping out the students after school time. Forinstance there could be a need for helping them do their homework, but it could also be organizing social activities in order for the students to build strong networks among each other. Furthermore it will be nice for some students to have the volunteers to talk to and share thoughts with, since they are young (around 16) and don't see their own families that often.
The volunteers can be rolemodels and inspire the students to see their own potentials in a world of opportunities. In addition to this the volunteers will help the staff at Campus doing administrative tasks like making surveys among the students. At the other organization the volunteers will help the local chapter spreading the knowledge about the exchange program conducting info meetings and camps. By representing a foreign culture, and sharing personal experiences, the volunteers can play a big part in motivating youth to be active citizenz and explore their posibilities for traveling. The volunteers can do tasks like updating social medias, visiting schools and youthclubs and in the nearest cities. Most likely there will also be some longer travels to bigger cities to inspire youth. Another task is to help families and potential students in the application process. The volunteers will also coordinate the anual predeparture orientation.
