VOLUNTEER’S PROFILE
We wish to welcome people from different backgrounds in keeping with our social equity values. Our aim is to enable everyone to develop skills, but also to pass on their own knowledge to the others. We believe this will help each person to see him or herself as an individual within a group and to grow in respect and consideration for others.
We expect our volunteers to have a good understanding of our overall project and to be motivated to be part of a team. We regard volunteering as an exchange between a volunteer who offers his/her time and energy to a collective project and a host community that in turn provides the volunteer
with learning and testing ground as well as a space for personal development.
It is important for us, that is why we await from the volunteers to invest themselves into technical part of the work, by bringing energy and technical knowledge, as well as, to invest into animation and intercultural part of the activities by bringing ideas and organisational abilities.
Nevertheless, the most important element for our association remains the motivation and the willingness of the volunteers to invest themselves wholeheartedly in Sem&Vol.
