Description

If you too believe that a better world is possible, join us! WeWorld works especially for girls, boys, women and young people, actors of change in every community for a fairer and more inclusive world. It helps people to overcome emergencies and guarantee a life worth living, by offering opportunities and a better future through programmes of human and economic development. In the framework of the VOLACT project, we are looking for a volunteer who will join a Team of 5 volunteers for a short-term volunteering period in WeWorld Kenya! The volunteer will focus on collecting photos and videos during awareness raising activities carried out by the rest of the team on reducing and recycling waste through customized games in 4 schools in Narok county. They will be later in charge of editing the materials to create a photo dossier and 3 video-pills. Check out the experience of the former Volunteering Team !

Participant profile

We look for motivated people, ready to socialize and experience a different culture, able to adapt and contribute to a team for a period of one month.

Please note that the total amount of time spent by a young person in European Solidarity Corps volunteering activities must not exceed 12 months and the activities carried out must not overlap. Activities carried out under Erasmus+ volunteering/European Voluntary Service will count towards the total of 12 months allowed. Equality and inclusiveness are part of the core values of EU and WeWorld. The European Solidarity Corps initiative provides opportunities that are accessible for all. However, some people cannot benefit equally from these opportunities because they face various barriers. Inclusion of people facing access barriers or having fewer opportunities is a key objective of European Solidarity Corps Program, aiming at establishing a dedicated framework for inclusion measures.
