The EVS activities will be held in Vanadzor town. The office of Flight NGO is situated in the city center. The EVS volunteer will run the European Club and other activities mostly there for young people from the town. Normally the office is open during 11:00-19:00 every working day. The organisation activities are run by local young volunteers, and they are at the office depending on the activity (about 4 hours a day).
The volunteers work starts at 11.00 and ends at 19.00 (including 2 hours of lunch break). Working week consists of 5 days. The volunteer will live in a rented flat near to the office of the host organisation (if it is not near the office, transportation will be provided). A volunteer will have his/her own room. The rented flat is properly decorated and has sufficient furniture with cleaning, cooking, and washing facilities.

The volunteer will have the following learning opportunities and services:
– developing project management skills while assisting in planning, implementation, and evaluation of youth clubs;

The role of EVS volunteer will be assisting the host organisation in its activities. Most of the activities of Flight NGO have been implemented for many years, and the volunteer will give to these activities refreshment, Intercultural and European dimension, and creativity and new ideas. The host organisation will encourage the volunteer to give new ideas to its activities and/or suggest any new activities that they would like to initiate in our communities. The below mentioned planned activities are flexible and will be final-tuned according to the interests and learning needs of the volunteer.
VOLUNTEER PROFILES AND RECRUITMENT PROCESS:
There is no requirements of special competences. What is really important is the motivation of the volunteer to work with active young people and assist in running the youth clubs while cooperating together as a team. The volunteer should be interested in:
– spreading European values in our city;
– intercultural dialogue and presenting their cultures;
– one or more our youth clubs topics (journalism, environment, etc);
– being initiative and suggesting ideas and activities;
We are also looking for open-minded volunteer who are ready to experience the real taste of a new and a quite different culture in a town which is not a capital city, and are equally ready to share and present the culture they come from. Russian language is a plus but is not a must. People in our communities speak more Russian then English. So, it would be easier for the volunteer in integration in the local communities and carrying out his/her activities. The supporting organisation ICIRLD will disseminate the project call through its international partner networks and www.youthnetworks.eu network to make the project placement more accessible. Then the application packages of the candidates will be sent to the our organisation where the selection of volunteer will be carried out by our staff according to candidates motivation and interests.
