  Project Venue:    Worgl, Austria

  Project Dates:     June 2013 – June 2014 /1 year/

  Volunteer Tasks:  The volunteer is working in a team of professional staff and will get any support needed to have a successful time in the Workgroup B.E.T.A.  - get in contact with the target group and support them in their tasks: The main idea is to be with the youngsters – a person they can talk to, a person who is interested intheir work and they can share with. There could be many approaches to work with our young people. Tasks of the international volunteer could be to talk to the teenagers, help them with easy work, especially when using the computers (e.g. writing CVs, job applications,…) or to assist them in training school subjects (e.g. maths, communication). Furthermore the volunteer could accompany the youngsters, in particular if they are working outside, and when they go on excursions or if they go to a job interview. As most of the teenagers have some problems in integrate themselves in a social environment, the volunteer could be a helping hand in learning matters like these. On a social basis the volunteers could learn to be a kind mediator if conflicts between group members occur and search for a persons they can rely on. They have the chance to cook with the participants. If the volunteer has an awareness for gender problems the volunteer is welcome to implement such issues in her/his daily work as well.

                               - Developing own ideas: Our daily work is to support and to empower young people to use their resources. We would like to invite the volunteer to develop and present her/his own ideas. Projects can be of different kinds and can either happen spontaneously or be long-lived. In this area there are no limitations of the volunteer’s ideas and imagination. Her/His skills, interests and projects can be offered to the youngsters and the local community.
                               - Assist the project manager: Support the manager: Marketing, administrative working and public relations are important tasks of the project manager. The volunteer can assist the manager and learn about important employed processes in the project and the project environment e.g. reporting, quality management.

  Volunteer Profile:  We are searching for a person who is open, friendly and interested to communicate and listen to our participants. The volunteer should be interested in working with young people and social work. Mechanical skills or an apprenticeship as skilled worker would be appreciated cause the project offers skilled manual work for the participants. There are no considerations related to gender or religion. Basic German skills would be great as our participants can`t speak English.
