Bona Fides Association and A.C.T.O.R.- Cultural Association for Theatre and Origami in Romania looking for Polish volunteers (aged 18-30) for a long-term ESC project in Bucharest, Romania!

Place: Bucharest, Romania
Start: From June, July, or August 2026
Duration: 12 months
About the hosting organisation
A.C.T.O.R. exists since 2002. The Organisation promotes European Solidarity initiatives through voluntary work. We work mainly in the clinical animation field and deliver non-formal session and workshops to kids in Bucharest and surroundings.
As a cultural association we are using a large spectrum of tools and have developed different skills during the past years. We create materials to promote our project like origami, shadow theatre, forum theatre, clinical animation, pedagogical animation, etc.
At the same time, we are conscious that many children and youngsters are not able to have access to artistic or cultural activities of any sort, that’s why we start doing workshops in disadvantaged communities outside the capital.
Our Mission
The aim of the project is to foster inclusion and solidarity values, to introduce the sense of community through non- formal education and to support art in the local and rural context.
We operate with two target groups:
• with children in hospitals and social centres;
• with kids and youngsters from 3 to 18+ years with few opportunities and little knowledge about cultural diversity.
Volunteers’ tasks
• to develop and implement the clinical animation sessions in hospitals and social centers organizing introductory workshops for fellow volunteers about clinic animation;
• contribute with visual materials, articles, films, photos, for Facebook, annual magazine, Youtube channel, Instagram, and blog;
• plan and organize the events to promote ESC in general and volunteering in particular both in physical and online
format;
• support in organizing and promotion of annual social and fundraising campaigns of the organization;
• artistic events (music, dance, theatre) to promote a solidarity behaviour among the young generation.
