Resumo: All Danish folk high schools are based on the teachings of the philosopher N.F.S. Grundtvig and contemporary educators, who believed that valuable lessons about life could be learned through dialogue, teaching and social interaction. The Danish folk high schools are still seen as a vital part of the formation and development of democracy in Denmark. Brenderup Folk high school, like the other folk high schools, offer non-formal adult education. Most students are between 18 and 25 years old, the length of a typical stay is from 12 weeks to 10 months and we have around 45 students following different courses. They sleep, eat, study and spend their spare time at the school - a boarding school. There are no academic requirements for admittance and there are no exams. The host organization believes that a precondition for peaceful co-existence in the world is the unbiased interaction of people from different cultural backgrounds.It is in the meeting with what is different from ourselves that people may deepen their understanding of themselves. This meeting moves our prejudices and gives us a new kind of perspective and personal skills in the social life.

Perfil: Volunteers above 25 years of age who are open-minded, reflective, mature and full of initiative will be preferred.

The volunteers must be able to speak English at a conversational level.

A volunteer with a non-Danish cultural background will hopefully give the folk high school some extra intercultural energy and inspiration to its work with the global dimension.

If the volunteer has interest and skills related to sustainability, social media and communication and sport it is a plus.

Tarefas: Examples of activities in which the volunteer could be involved:

Practical work, such as maintenance of our buildings.
Sustainability – working with sustainability as the main issue in daily life. Growing herbs, ensuring diversity by gardening, collecting fruit and berries, making activities/workshops about sustainable living.
Facilitating intercultural activities.
Facilitating sport activities.
Office work (making brochures, taking photos/videos, updating facebook e.g.).
The volunteers will have opportunities to assist the teachers in the subjects for which the volunteer has a special commitment or knowledge about.
and activities in which the volonteer will be involved:

Leisure activities for the students. The host organization is very open to any new idea for after-class activities the volunteers might have.
Participation in all of the arrangements and events run by the school and connected associations.
Every Sunday one of the normally 3 volunteers will help the teacher with planning student activities, coordinating the meals, making sure that kitchen and weekend duties are done by the students and if needed welcoming guests at the school. The teacher who is responsible for the weekend will always be backup.
During our short term summer courses the tasks will also include servicejobs like running a small bar, cleaning and assisting teachers in various activities
