Resumo: The host organization is an international Folk Hight School for people who are above 17.5 years old. Students come from both Denmark and abroad, and during the period of the course they live at the school. There are about 16 staff members, including teachers and technical personal. Generally the staff members have extensive experience in intercultural work. The school is one of the many Danish Folk High Schools which base their work on the teachings of N.F.S Grundtvig and contemporary educators, who believed that valuable lessons about life could be learned through dialogue, teaching and social interaction.

A course of study in what Grundtvig called the 'school for life' will help students grow as a person, and the integrity and self- confidence they gain will support them in their professional life.
The Danish Folk High Schools have no tests or exams- they emphasise the importance of culture, creativity and the people to people aspects in life. This is conducted through open discussions and by openly answering questions to uncover the magnitude of cultural differences in order to learn how to accept and respect these differences.

The overall humanitarian purpose of the Danish Folk High Schools is to strenghten the students' ability to form his or her own opinion and to respect different views as expressed by their fellow students. In our opinion this is the most important characteristic, and the strenght- of the Danish Folk High Schools. In a globalized world these ways and means of education are especially important in order to prepare the students to consider the entire world as their future workplace.

Tarefas: The host organization is looking for a volunteer handling the following tasks:

Documenting student’s activities and everyday life at the school (with a camera)
Recording the performances and artistic projects
Editing and graphic work
Strategic web communication and the opportunity to work with Social Media
The volunteer will be a part of the special fellowship which you find on a folk high school. He/she will participate in the subjects in the spare time, and through the entire stay the staff will help and support the volunteer whenever needed. The international environment creates the possibility for the volunteer to be part of different intercultural activities and we encourage the volunteer to help create an intercultural environment at the school, bringing students together. This could be done through informal cultural activities, dancing classes, language classes, etc. The possibilities are many, why we also encourage the volunteer to be proactive and take initiatives. The volunteer collaborates with staff, teachers and students on different projects. For example, assisting teachers to make lights on a show or help students to record a video or take pictures.

The primary task of the volunteer is to document the daily life at the school, editing the footage and images and to publish it on social media platforms (home page, facebook, instagram). The volunteer will also work with graphic design such as making posters and flyers for events. There will be plenty of opportunity for new initiatives and for the volunteer to create his/her own activities. If the volunteer has specific creative skills he/she will also be very welcome to create practical projects using those skills or assist teaching or offer workshops in collaboration with a teacher.

Horário: As the program is quite intensive, there are often activities at the High School in the weekends. If the volunteer works during the weekend, he/she will have time off at another time during the week. The average working hours per day will be about 6-7 hours.
