Resumo: The hosting organization is a reception centre for asylum seekers. There are two different types of centres in Belgium: open and closed. In closed centres, there’s no free circulation permitted outside the centre. We are an open centre, which means asylum seekers are free to enter and leave as they wish. They usually stay at the centre during the time the ministry of Foreign Affairs inspects their files and papers. Most of the refugees stay at Klein Kasteeltje for a minimum of three to six months. In some cases they may stay for a couple of years or even more.
We try to cooperate with all parties to guarantee the refugee a professional and respectful approach to providing shelter, we offer an appropriate framework and orientation to help them shape their future.
At the moment 400 asylum seekers are living at the organization , which makes it the largest open centre of Belgium. The refugees sleep in dorms (if they’ve arrived alone) or in private apartments (if they’ve arrived with their family). Most of them are single men, but there are women, families and even minors without their parents. Their nationality is very divers, but a lot of people come from Albania, Kosovo, Macedonia, Serbia, Slovenia and so on.
Perfil: Possible activities at the team:
- organising activities for adults and minors
- sport activities for adults (mainly soccer, volleybal, table tennis, fitness)
- language training: French, Dutch, English
- other trainings: sewing, dancing, painting
- IT: helping out with starting up computers, helping to find information about the country of origin
- daily life orientation: how to take a bus, how to read a card
- social help: trying to find an appartment, talking to the owners, helping out the refugees with administrative work, visiting ill people
A lot of activities can be organised at the centre, there’s enough choice for every personality with its unique competences. Every project from a volunteer will be welcomed. The activities will be looked at in detail to see what’s possible. Important to bear in mind though is that the proposed projects depend on the preference of the refugees. For example: the volunteer might be interested in organising a workshop about dramatic art, but if none of the refugees is interested, the volunteer should be flexible enough to put emphasis on other aspects.
Tarefas: There are different ways to be useful as a volunteer at Klein Kasteeltje. However, the volunteer will mainly be working at the team of WOVT because the work demands the least competences upon arrival and offers the most possibilities of participation and innovation.
