The present project involves Italy and Argentina and it will be developed in Posadas, in the operative departements of the hosting organisation, the Asociation Jardin de los Niños. The recruited volunteers are two Italian for a 8 months project dealing with the themes of development cooperation, children, minorities, gender equality and discrimination. The objective is to enforce volunteers' human and civic conciousness by tighthly working with people in social and economic troubles being supported by the personnel and the volunteers of the humanitarian organisation. The structures led by Jardin de los Niños in which the volunteers will be involved in, are: a nursery school located in a poor slum; a welcome centre for unmarried teenage mothers; an elderly centre; a social-community centre providing health assistance, social and psychological support to children; and the “San Jorge” educational centre, which is Jardin de los Niños main office. All the activities will be developed in Provincia de Misiones: in particular in Barrio Sesquincentenario there are the nurserey and the welcome centre for teenage-mothers; in Barrio San Jorge the social communitarian centre, the elderly centre, and the association main office. The 2 Italian volunteers are highly motivated for the entire project: they will be trained through non-formal methods as the "learning by doing" approach for which youth will be asked to observe situations and interact with the users and the local community. Volunteers will be constantly driven and supported by the mentor and the local professionals involved in the structures, who will also train them on the so called "Mutua Ayuda" metodology, which is adopted by the hosting partner in the services they offer to the people in need.
