Summary

Have you ever thought that it would be a challenge for you to work with children with disabilities in a developing country?

Detailed description

Children with disabilities are often not important to Gambian society. Sometimes these children are forced to beg or are even locked up. You will have the opportunity to supervise children with activities in a special class that was created with Gilde Opleidingen ROC Venlo. Of course you can also contribute ideas in consultation with the local employees. You also give personal guidance to the children.


We ask;

* You are at least 18 years old on the departure date.

* You are physically and mentally healthy.

* You are patient, flexible, reliable and interested in other cultures.

* You have experience regarding the vacancy or you follow a training for this. * There is an application procedure.

* You pay the costs that voluntary work in The Gambia entails, such as preparation and supervision costs, airline tickets, accommodation costs and meals.


We offer;

* Interesting projects from which you will learn a lot.

* Good preparation in the Netherlands and guidance in The Gambia.

* Pick-up from the airport.

* Introduction day in The Gambia.

* A guest address which serves as a home base where the volunteer can go with questions and relax himself.

* Various options for trips and / or workshops.


This volunteer vacancy cannot (yet) be filled as long as the corona measures apply in the Netherlands and / or the Gambia. If interested, it is possible to make an appointment without obligation.
