About the local hosting organization
Antigóna is a non-profit organization, created in Rastignano (Bologna) on 7.2.2008, on the initiative of five founder members. Its registered office is located in Bologna, Via dello Scalo 10, and its recently opened, operational headquarters is in the same road, Via dello Scalo 6/a.
Antigóna aims to achieve the following goals:
• to conceive and implement projects of social solidarity, development cooperation and humanitarian aid, in order to permanently improve the living, health and work conditions of the final beneficiaries, strengthening their skills to guarantee sustainability over time for the projects;
• to inform, raise awareness, and involve the civil society, especially the youth, about actions aimed at solidarity, enhancing the initiative, the energies and the expressions of volunteering;
• to favour the self-directed progress, in social, cultural, technical and economic spheres, of sectors of unprivileged population, also through collaborative relationships with their organizational expressions, and with other subjects involved in development cooperation, at national and international level;
• to promote the human growth, the non-formal and intercultural learning, the acquisition of skills and practical experiences, and the professional training of young people motivated to develop social solidarity activities and international development cooperation.
To achieve these goals, since its inception Antigóna has privileged a peculiar and very collaborative operating mode, that is: to put the skills that Antigóna and its members have, at the disposal of other organizations that have embarked in a project and find themselves in some kind of difficulty. In other words, Antigóna was born to collaborate with other organizations and support them, helping their projects to overcome temporary difficulties, or to reach a better daily functioning, depending on the case. It is a highly original mission, rarely adopted by other non-profit entities. As a consequence of this mission, Antigóna has always been active in projects of various types, without specializing in any particular theme. We evaluate and choose the collaborations in which to be engaged on the basis of our assessments about: the quality of the project, the adequacy of our competences with respect to it, the empathy with the possible partners with whom we come into contact, and our operative possibilities in that specific moment.
Besides the collaborations with other organizations, we also realize projects conceived and managed by ourselves, yet remaining always open to networks with other partners sharing our operating mode.
Currently Antigóna is involved in three activities:
• a collaboration with an Italian informal group, to support its project in India called "Crumbs of solidarity";
• our own activity related to the "European Solidarity Corps'';
• a long-standing social informatics project, called ''The informatic harbour'', to help people in trouble to carry out online administrative procedures.
We also have a bunch of other collaborations and projects in evaluation, to be possibly started.
Presentation of the program
L'area dove opera l'organizzazione d'accoglienza è tra le più degradate a causa della crisi mineraria e della conseguente depressione socio-economica che dura dal 1990. È un'area in cui si concentrano più fattori che spingono parte della popolazione all'esclusione sociale: alto tasso di disoccupazione, e fallimento e abbandono scolastici. Sarai inserito in un programma socio-educativo che attraverso laboratori di gruppo può migliorare le abilità sociali e scolastiche dei minorenni della zona fornendo loro le competenze di base necessarie a una reincorporazione all'interno del sistema educativo-formativo, sviluppare le loro capacità sociali e stimolarli a organizzarsi per partecipare ad attività d'intrattenimento salutari e rispettose dei loro simili e dell'ambiente. Tra le tue attività vi saranno: laboratori di lingua, di rinforzo scolastico, d'apprendimento di nuove competenze socio-educative, personali, e di sensibilizzazione ambientale, momenti d'animazione e gite scolastiche.
About the accommodation
C'è una stanza che t'aspetta in un appartamento di Cartagena, dove vivrai con altri volontari in una casa dotata di tutto il necessario. Ogni mese riceverai una retribuzione simbolica di 186 euro, e un'altra somma di 184 euro per le spese d'alimentazione. Il viaggio d'andata e ritorno dall'Italia alla Spagna ti sarà completamente rimborsato. Anche i trasporti tra Cartagena e La Unión ti saranno rimborsati. L'orario dell'attività sarà intorno alle 32 ore a settimana, con 22 giorni liberi durante l'anno. Un'assicurazione convenzionata con l'Unione Europea ti coprirà da ogni possibile rischio.
About the leisure
Avrai 3 momenti formativi ufficiali: una formazione prepartenza prima di lasciare l'Italia, un grande meeting poco dopo l'arrivo in Spagna e un altro grande incontro dopo la metà del tuo volontariato. Questo progetto ti permetterà di sviluppare il sentimento di solidarietà tra giovani come te, generando maggiore consapevolezza su cosa significhi essere cittadini che partecipano attivamente nella società. Costituirà per te un'esperienza d'apprendimento unica, attraverso la quale sia tu che i beneficiari che conoscerai potrete crescere assieme, professionalmente, personalmente e umanamente.
Requirements
The Participant profile: Sei la persona giusta per quest'iniziativa se hai un'attitudine positiva verso il volontariato, un vero desiderio di partecipare a questo progetto per tutti gli 11 mesi previsti, e se senti di condividere i valori che esso esprime. L'organizzazione d'accoglienza privilegia il senso di responsabilità, lo spirito d'iniziativa, la pazienza e l'abilità di fare un passo indietro in caso di conflitti interpersonali al fine di ricomporli in maniera più efficace, l'entusiasmo e il piacere di partecipare a tutte le varie attività incluse nel progetto. Un'attitudine al lavoro con i bambini e i ragazzi, anche quelli difficili, e resistenza fisica al pendolarismo completano il profilo ideale. È proprio il tuo? Allora preséntati! Ma ricorda che tutto il materiale che metti a disposizione per supportare la tua candidatura dev'essere in Inglese (o in Spagnolo....)!!!
