Background:
The Centre Europa Jove is a youth information centre about international mobility. We
are working in the Barcelonès County, which means Barcelona and the four
surrounding cities. This centre forms part of the Barcelonès city council and is working
in cooperation with the town halls of Barcelona, Santa Coloma de Gramenet, Sant
Adrià del Besòs, Badalona and L'Hospitalet de Llobregat.
The goals of the centre:
- to inform young people about their possibilities to go abroad and about European
mobility programs
- to give young people all the necessary tools to be able to go abroad, from
information to language training
- to promote youth mobility and to encourage to take part in mobility projects as a
resource for youth empowerment
- to raise youth employability
Tasks of the volunteer:
- participate in all activities of the Centre Europa Jove
- prepare and give language courses (English and native language)
- participate and develop workshops about youth mobility programs
- support the team in the online job tool
- the volunteer will be encouraged to propose other activities and will develop
together with other European volunteers a personal project.
Profile of the volunteer:
The volunteer must be an open person with interest in working with young people and
in mobility projects. The volunteer should be interested in giving workshops and
classes. We welcome people with interest in organizing non formal training activities
about their own culture and language.
Practical information:
Place: The EVS takes place mainly in Santa Coloma de Gramenet (by metro easily
reachable from Barcelona, where the volunteer will be living). The project involves
local mobility which means that twice a week the workplace will be in a different youth
centre.

Hours: The volunteer will be expected to work 30 hours/week. The working hours will
