Summary

If you think it is important to make a difference in the lives of children, this is an interesting challenge.

Detailed description

You will work at an educational center. This center is located on an almost 1 hectare large orchard with fruit trees, gardens and animals. In the “learning lab”, local children between 7 and 17 years old use tablets with more than 100 apps of language, math, patterns and logic. Also the nature around them; the plants, the animals and the sun (solar energy) provide various learning activities. The center is visited almost every day by about 20 to 50 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 affinity or experience regarding the vacancy or you are following a course 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.
