PROJECT
FINISHED
Rapatac Activity Center opened in April 2012. The center is based on a new and unique concept in Sweden. Our main goal is to provide all children and teenagers from 6 to 18 years old, a place where they may grow up in a safe environment, surrounded by role models which may guide them and give the necessary tools for a solid foundation for their future life. We focus on that the children in activities to understand the importance of knowledge for the future and become employable by having more experiences together with people with different backgrounds, through informal and non formal learning. We want to develop the children and parents and volunteers in the Activitycenter and give them the opportunity to have a deeper knowledge about EU, and in the long term establish a local integration and collaboration as a well-spoken, insightful and valued partner of clarity. In order to reach our goal we focus on both the importance of homework and the variety of activities that they can choose in our center. That's why, we strongly encourage them to develop their knowledge, curiosity and creativity through the literature activity, the homework support and a range of activities. We would like to start a new European Voluntary Service project as a hosting and coordination organisation and receive applications from volunteers to begin the project between January-December 2016. At this moment Rapatac is able to host 3 volunteers at the same time. The duration of the projects will be 11 months and the frequency will be continuous. Working week description: 36 hours working week (Activities + Swedish language courses), 2 day-off every month according to the EVS regulations and also day-offs on the national holidays. The capacity of the activities at site is enough for all volunteers and they would play an important role in our organization everyday operations. We concentrate more on quality than on a quantity that is why we prefer to host as many volunteers as would be right enough for them to enjoy their service process. The main role of volunteers in Rapatac will be to provide assistance to our activity leaders in diffenrent fields that we have. They are expected to be a role-model for the youth. Rapatac is involved in: sport, culture, creativity, design, music, theatre, film, média etc. The volunteers will also get space for their own ideas and contributions, we will provide space for their self realization. After successful completion of the project all volunteers will get Youthpass stating all the achievement that they had during their project, and that could be useful for their future career. Rapatac will after this work to spread all the result of the project. The volunteers will get a lot of knowledge to bring back to their home countries after the end of their project in Gävle.
