PROJECT
FINISHED
The project last for 12 months. We like to have 4 volunteers from four different countries. We have had EVS project for 5 years and have a good experience for including international volunteers in our organization and in the local work of our members. Even the volunteers may do practical work in relation to our members and partners its a clear understanding that the volunteer activity should be administrated, leaded and be closed liked to the general secretary. The exchange of culture, skills, knowledge and attitudes are important in our project. We are an organization who have relation and activities about on local, regional and national level. We also work with international contacts and its an important issue for us to maintain this as an important part of the organization. We also see the project as a way of promoting Erasmus + both to our member but also to other organization.
We see EVS as a way of sharing experiences and competencies about 3. sector in Norway. We includes volunteers in our dayly work and tries to challenge them also to involve them self in our organization.
We have an open profile for our volunteers in the sense that we do not ask for one or few competencies. But try to design the profile of the activities as much as possible according to the volunteers interest and competencies. That mean the each year will be different and the volunteers will be involved in many different activities.
During the project we put alot of effort in the learning process. We use Youth pas as a tool for reflecting on what they learn in all aspect of their EVS project. It will be anything from how they adopt to the Norwegain system of society or to how they learn to post articles on web. It is also relevant to talk about what they learn from living together and sharing an apartment. Volunteers are challenged to work independent and see possibilities in a way that also gives them the chance to learn about entrepreneurship and responsibility.
Activities in the project may be general work in office with database, member registration and communication. It would be grafic work with brochures and web pages. It will be work in children group and after school program. Youth work and youth clubs, camps and festivals. Its also include work with elderly people and disabled, people at risk and Roma community in Norway. As we arrange trainings and study tours it will also involve planning and communication with participants and partners about program and contracts.
