Resumo: We would like that the local youth be aware of the European dimension of which they are part of being in contact
directly with the young people from other European countries, who could show and explain their culture, and the life
styles. Participating in these activities they are in touch with european youth , which implies a profound intercultural
learning, being this an additional complement to the specific activities of the project and contributing to the european
dimension of the activities.

Condições: Work Hours and Days Off:
Volunteers will work around 6 hours a day from Monday to Friday. Normally all volunteers will have their two days off at
the weekends, except when weekend activities are carried out, in which case volunteers will have their two days off
during the week.
They have the right to have holidays according to the Programme (2 days per each project month); the exact dates will
be agreed between the volunteer, Host Organization and Coordinating Organization.
Board, lodging and food:
Volunteers will live in a shared flat ( Address: Spain, Avda Cardenal Herrera Oria nº36 – 3ºB, 39011 Santander, rented
by Asociación Ser Joven.
The flat has got three bedrooms (as there are four to six volunteers living there,the rooms will be shared), two
bathrooms, two balconies, the living room and the kitchen. There is a television with national and international
channels and internet access (WI-FI)as well as a computer at volunteers’ disposal. The flat is situated in a block of flats 20 minutes by bus from the centre (40 minute walking).

There is a series of certain rules in the flat that have to be obeyed by all the volunteers:
1. Volunteers should facilitate co-existence to their flatmates and should respect each other as well as their
belongings and space.
2. Volunteers should take care of their living place provided by Asociación Ser Joven that should be properly
maintained (it should be clean and tidy).
3. Each volunteer will be responsible for cleaning up their room (wardrobes, bed, sheets). Having finished the project
volunteers should leave their rooms tidy, clean and prepared for the next volunteers).
4. No noise is allowed between 10pm and 8am.
5. It is not allowed to smoke in the flat. The only zone where smoking is allowed is the balconies.
6. Weekly clean-up shifts will be established in the commonly used areas (the kitchen, the living room, the hall and
the bathrooms).
7. Alter using the kitchen; each volunteer should clean up everything that has been used, so that the rest of the
volunteers could use it as well.
8. If any appliance, any piece of furniture, socket, etc… does not work properly or is broken, or if any tap is
leaking, Asociación Ser Joven should be informed immediately.
9. If anything is broken because of volunteers’ imprudence or carelessness, it has to be replaced or paid by the
guilty.
10. Asociación Ser Joven may visit the flat whenever it is considered suitable in order to check if it is properly
maintained.
11. If a bedroom or any common space is not tidy or broken because of the lack of maintenance, Asociación Ser
Joven will clean it up and fix all the damages. The costs will be paid by the volunteers living in the flat.

12. If any bill arrives (water), it should be brought to the Asociación’s office. If it is any other ordinary letter, it
should be given to the house caretaker.
13. Since volunteers come from different countries and cultures, it will be up to them to establish common rules in
order to make the co-existence easier. One of the basic rules, though, will be to speak a common language,
preferably Spanish.
14. The quantity that appears on the gas meter has to be noted down on a poster hanged in the hallway door more
or less every month. Volunteers should keep an eye on the hallway door.
15. When volunteers leave the flat, they should check if all the lights and taps are turned off. When the flat is
empty, all the lights should remain turned off.
16. Guests are allowed, however, as the flat is used by other EVS volunteers of the Asociación Ser Joven, andr
people authorised by the Asociación Ser Joven. Volunteers should always consult the intention of hosting any
family members, friends, boyfriends and girlfriends for a very short period of time.
17. Any kind of pets are strictly forbidden.
18. Once the Project has finished volunteers should leave the flat and hand over the keys to Asociación Ser Joven.
Each volunteer will be paid a monthly amount of money for food (which is currently 185 €) so that they can buy what
they like and cook themselves.
Local Transport:
Volunteers will be provided with Travel Cards in order to use public transport home- work venue- home. They should
recharge the cards themselves and get reimbursement handing in the receipts.
Volunteers’ allowance:
Volunteers will receive € 105 of monthly allowance during the first week of each month.
Mentor:
To assure the supervision and effective monitoring of every volunteer, the Coordinating Organization will be
responsible to monitor the learning process of the volunteers- that will be explained in detail during the On-arrival
Training, making a mid evaluation during Mid- Term Meeting and issuing Youthpass- ,a learning Outcomes Report at
the end of the project.
Volunteers will be provided their mentor who will introduce the volunteer into the citylife, help with practical matters,
help to solve any problems for example if they face a situation of crisis.

Formação: Our volunteers will have the opportunity to give their own ideas of the projects, especially those connected with the diffusion of the “Youth in Action” Programme and the European conscience in educational centres or with youth and youth workers interested in the subject.
The staff will offer their support and share their experience with different activities in this field. We would like to
inform as many local young people as possible about the different oportunities and options offered by the Youth in
Action programme, especially the benefits of participating in European Voluntary Service. Foreign volunteers and exvolunteers
are the best source of information and by describing their experience can cause much more impact on locals.
We´ll try to bring closer all the information especially to those young people who do not have access to this sort of
information, because of social, economic, geografical problems…
