A propos du logement sur place

L’école de langue aide les participants à trouver un logement à Leipzig. Ils peuvent avoir une chambre simple dans une résidence universitaire. Plusieurs dortoirs sont disponibles pour les différents programmes. Ils sont situés dans différents quartiers de la ville et sont tous accessibles facilement grâce aux transports publics.

Localisation du projet

Vingt ans après la révolution pacifique de 1989, Leipzig est devenue un lieu où beaucoup aiment vivre et travailler. La popularité de la ville est en hausse. Leipzig a récemment fait la une du Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung : « Cet endroit n'est pas un rêve ».

C'est la combinaison suivante qui fait la différence à Leipzig : c'est une grande ville avec de nombreux espaces verts où les gens sont ouverts à la nouveauté. Nombreux sont ceux qui la décrivent comme animée et passionnante - un lieu où coexistent culture de haut niveau et sous-culture. C'est cette combinaison qui différencie vraiment Leipzig, et ce sentiment est encore souligné par le New York Times. Le quotidien affirme que Leipzig est ce que Berlin était il y a dix ans et que l'ambiance euphorique des années 90 est encore perceptible. Le journal est également séduit par la scène artistique et musicale de Leipzig, comme le détaille un autre article.

A propos des activités de loisirs possibles

L'école organise des évènements culturels pour les participants des niveaux A1, A2 et B2 et des excursions pour les participants des niveaux B1 et C1. 

En plus de ces activités organisés par l'école, les participants pourront découvrir la «MarktPlatz», avec ses boutiques, l'ancien hôtel de ville, le passage Specks Hof, l'église Saint-Nicolas. Pas loin se trouve également le «Madler Passage», la ville possède une trentaine de passages mais celui-ci est peut-être le plus beau d'entre eux. On peut également citer le musée Panometer, le quartier des théâtres, le parc de Wackelturm et la Panorama Tower.

In most cases, the tasks of the volunteers are to organise events and spend time with the adolescents. It is very important that you clearly know your role as a volunteer in this kind of project. There is a difference between you and the young people that come to the youth centre, although you might be of the same age. You work there, so you have to act accordingly and take responsibility.

Main Activities:
Taking care of and doing activities with the children.

Volunteer's Tasks:

For the staff, it is important that the volunteer gets to know the project and the language, but it is also important that the volunteer presents his/her own country to the children. In the beginning of the exchange year, the volunteer has time to get used to everything. He/she handles small tasks like playing with the children or helping them to tidy up and to set the table. Later, the volunteer can take on responsibilities within small groups. This depends very much on the skills of the volunteer.

A propos du logement sur place

The volunteer will live with a host family.

Exigences

The volunteer should be:

Interested in working with small children
Flexible
Cooperative
Patient
Creative
Ready to fulfil tasks in the project

Informations supplémentaires sur le projet

Working with children gives you a good chance to learn and practice the language because the children will just start talking to you. You get to know new games, creative activities and educational methods and maybe you can also show the children games from your country. This kind of work demands a lot of patience from you and you should like to be with children and to play with them. You should also be good in setting limits for the children and sometimes say ”no” to what they want. Working in a kindergarten helps you to experience many traditional (i.e. carnival), religious (i.e. Easter) and other cultural events.
Work usually starts at 8 o’clock a.m. and lasts until 2 or 4 o’clock p.m. every week day.

The national office is located in Berlin.

Présentation du programme

Working in seminar houses, hostels or educational centres means being together with (young) adults and people from other cultures and nationalities.

The volunteers usually work and live together with other German volunteers, in some way they “replace” the host family. You will be able to learn a lot about German culture and traditions living with people of your age. It needs a high level of personal responsibility, as in most cases you are on your own. This is why ICJA offers this type of projects mostly to volunteers who have already lived on their own or who are older than 21.

Project example: Youth Hostel. This hostel is offering low-priced accommodation and facilitating the encounter of young people from all over the world, thus promoting mutual understanding.

Volunteer tasks:
As a volunteer your tasks will be all around the house. They vary from assisting in the kitchen, housekeeping and working outside in the grounds. After your language skills have improved you will be able to support the team in looking after the guests/visitors, answering the phone or assisting in administrative work. Overall, you need to be service oriented and able to work in an organized and structured way.

Working with refugees needs a high level of empathy and patience. The volunteer needs to be open-minded and be mentally able to deal with stressful situations and people who are mentally and physically affected by the experience of war and flight (displacement). If you are willing to work in this type of project please let us know.

A propos de l'organisation locale

Seamen’s missions are located in cities with harbours. They offer support to seamen that come with the big transport ships from all over the world to the harbours. In many cases, the seamen only stay for a short time in a harbour, although they have been on the ship for months. So they have no possibility to go to the city centre, to a shop, a bar or an internet café.

The seamen missions help them with these kinds of things. The co-workers visit them on the ships and bring newspapers and other things to them, or the seamen can come to the seamen’s club in the harbour, where they can buy things for their daily need, watch TV, play billiard, use the internet, etc. The co-workers in the seamen’s missions are also there to listen to the seamen when they need someone to talk to about their thoughts and problems. Sometimes the seamen’s missions also provide accommodation for seamen. Since seamen’s missions have a Christian background, they offer also the possibility to take part in prayers and sermons.

Project example: Internationaler Seemannsclub Hamburg-Altona

Présentation du programme

Main Activities
The project offers different services, e.g. post service, money sending a bus service and a bar. The seamen's club is supported by the church and donations from companies and people.

Volunteer tasks
The volunteer will be driving, working at the bar and in the shop to exchange the money and take care of the post service. The volunteer will be responsible for the shopping for club, do cleaning chores and answer the phone.

There is a strong regional structure with 15 support groups all over the country. Most volunteers and co-workers have participated in the exchange program themselves. The national office is located in Berlin.

Présentation du programme

In the last years, ICJA has increased the cooperation with schools and associations which organize school assistance and after-school care. An example of this cooperation is Waldorfschule, an elementary school for children with emotional and behavioural difficulties. It's a school with an alternative learning concept which puts special emphasis on the development of emotional, social and personal skills of its students. The children are normally given more freedom to decide what they would like to learn and there are more activities related to movement and being outside. There are also other schools like Montessorischule with alternative learning concepts. The project’s aim is to develop the emotional, social and personal skills of children with disabilities.

Main Activities
Supporting the children’s rhythmical work and artwork. The school assists with therapeutic work, skilled manual and social work. They offer individual social care and excursions.

Volunteer tasks
The volunteer can participate and support in all daily activities, such as the classes or the outdoor activities. It would be also possible that the volunteer talks about his/her home country and culture.

A propos du logement sur place

The volunteer will live with a host family.

Exigences

The volunteer should be tolerant towards the children. He/she should be empathetic and interested in their differences and special needs. Special handiwork skills are appreciated.

Informations supplémentaires sur le projet

The German school system divides between elementary schools from grade 1-4 (age 6-10) and then differs between a secondary school (“Realschule” grade 5-10) and Gymnasium (grade 5-12). Moreover there are private schools which teach children with special needs or disabilities. In many federal states, the education system already offers school times during the whole day or until late afternoon. This is especially needed by parents who work full-time. These schools usually offer lunch for the children.

When working in a school your tasks can vary from taking care of the school grounds, assisting in the school kitchen andsupervising the children in theirbreaks and free timeafter classes. If your German skills are sufficient you may also help them with their homework and accompany the teachers during lessons.

Working in schools will give the volunteer a good impression about the German education system. Projects usually expect pedagogical experience in a certain amount and the ability to handle groups of many children with patience and enjoyment.

A propos de l'organisation localeVISIONEERS is a non-profit association and recognized carrier of the free youth welfare service in Berlin. Based on Christian values, such as mercy and social responsibility, we are committed to socially disadvantaged young people, and national and international development policy issues. Since 2016, VISIONEERS e. V. has been running an open youth club in Berlin-Schöneberg. This is a safe retreat, where a permanent contact person is available for the concerns of the young people and where alternative leisure activities are offered. By promoting their individual skills and talents, as well as strengthening their competencies through our diverse offerings, young people are not only offered meaningful recreational activities, but also increase their self-esteem and confidence in their own potential. In addition, the young people not only experience that they can get help themselves, but can also pass on their own skills and knowledge to other participants in various youth workshops. In this way, they slip into the role of the helpers and contribute to the enrichment of the project. By targeting young people with and without flight backgrounds, we create a platform for exchange and contact. Since 2018, we have been supporting the Berlin Vacation School and run it during the Easter, summer and autumn school holidays in Berlin-Schöneberg. In our Berlin Vacation School, we focus on language support, goal-oriented exchange and exploring different opportunities for leisure activities in Berlin. We are committed to a world in which individuals use their skills and talents effectively to make a lasting difference in the lives of others and help shape social change. VISIONEERS wants to overcome barriers by connecting the business world with the charitable world. So how will VISIONEERS help me personally? VISIONEERS offers you a wide range of opportunities to use your specific talents and experience to support charitable organizations in their challenges. Our various volunteer programs allow you to apply your skills in a new environment, develop new skills in practice, achieve your personal and professional goals, build an international network and effectively support some of the most disadvantaged communities. We promote education, training and vocational training in the Global South. International perspective and tolerance in all areas of cultural and population exchange are important to us. For example, since 2017 VISIONEERS has been sending motivated young people to Costa Rica, Peru and South Africa with the BMZ (Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development) sponsored volunteer service "weltwärts". By this, federal volunteers from the Global South are enabled to work with us in our association. Through targeted cooperation we support development projects in their countries of origin. -------------------------------------------------------------------- VISIONEERS ist ein gemeinnütziger Verein und anerkannter Träger der freien Jugendhilfe in Berlin. Auf der Grundlage christlicher Werte wie Barmherzigkeit und soziale Verantwortung engagieren wir uns für sozial benachteiligte Jugendliche sowie für nationale und internationale entwicklungspolitische Themen. Seit 2016 betreibt VISIONEERS einen offenen Jugendtreff in Berlin-Schöneberg. Dies ist ein sicherer Rückzugsort, in dem ein fester Ansprechpartner für die Belange der Jugendlichen zur Verfügung steht und alternative Freizeitmöglichkeiten angeboten werden. Durch die Förderung der individuellen Fähigkeiten und Begabungen sowie die Stärkung ihrer Kompetenzen durch unsere vielfältigen Angebote wird den Jugendlichen nicht nur eine sinnvolle Freizeitgestaltung geboten, sondern auch ihr Selbstwertgefühl und das Vertrauen in die eigenen Potenziale gestärkt. Darüber hinaus erfahren die Jugendlichen nicht nur, dass sie sich selbst Hilfe holen können, sondern können in verschiedenen Jugendworkshops ihre eigenen Fähigkeiten und Kenntnisse auch an andere Teilnehmer weitergeben. Auf diese Weise schlüpfen sie in die Rolle der Helfer und tragen zur Bereicherung des Projekts bei. Da unsere Zielgruppe Jugendliche mit und ohne Migrationshintergrund sind, schaffen wir eine Plattform für Austausch und Kontakt. Seit 2018 unterstützen wir die Berliner Ferienschule und führen sie in den Oster-, Sommer- und Herbstferien in Berlin-Schöneberg durch. In unserer Berliner Ferienschule setzen wir auf Sprachförderung, zielgerichteten Austausch und die Erkundung verschiedener Freizeitmöglichkeiten in Berlin. Wir setzen uns für eine Welt ein, in welcher jeder seine Fähigkeiten und Talente wirksam einsetzt, um das Leben anderer nachhaltig zu verändern und den gesellschaftlichen Wandel mitzugestalten. VISIONEERS will Barrieren überwinden, indem wir die Geschäftswelt mit der karitativen Welt verbinden. Dazu organisieren wir Corporate Volunteering Events. VISIONEERS bietet eine Vielzahl von Möglichkeiten, spezifische Talente und Erfahrungen einzusetzen, um gemeinnützige Organisationen bei ihren Herausforderungen zu unterstützen. Unsere verschiedenen Freiwilligenprogramme ermöglichen es, individuelle Fähigkeiten in einer neuen Umgebung anzuwenden, in der Praxis Neues zu lernen, persönliche und berufliche Ziele zu erreichen, ein internationales Netzwerk aufzubauen und einige der am stärksten benachteiligten Gemeinschaften effektiv und nachhaltig zu unterstützen. Wir fördern Bildung und Ausbildung im globalen Süden. Internationale Perspektive und Toleranz in allen Bereichen des Kultur- und Bevölkerungsaustauschs sind uns wichtig. Beispielsweise entsendet VISIONEERS seit 2017 motivierte junge Menschen nach Costa Rica, Peru und Südafrika mit dem vom BMZ (Bundesministerium für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung) geförderten Freiwilligendienst "weltwärts". Durch den Nord-Süd Austausch wird es Freiwilligen aus dem globalen Süden ermöglicht, bei uns im Verein in Berlin mitzuarbeiten. Durch gezielte Zusammenarbeit unterstützen wir Entwicklungsprojekte in ihren Herkunftsländern.
