CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS: International Project in Southern Moldova
Are you passionate about fostering democratic dialogue and empowering youth? Do you have a special interest in the democratic developments in Moldova, an EU candidate country? Our international project group is now looking for a new volunteer to join our team!
We are a project group within Silba’s International Department. We have very recently established a partnership with a Moldovan youth organization in the Southern region of the country; Gagauzia. Currently, we are four active volunteers in the group, and we are now looking for a new member to join our project group.
The project is still in its initial stages and you therefore have the opportunity to add your personal footprint to the project. Our plan is to apply for a Pilot Project through the Danish Youth Council International Pool before February 1st 2025, and you will as a new volunteer be part of this application process. The overall idea in the project is a youth leadership training - including dialogue training - targeting youth in Gagauzia.
Our group meets briefly once a week online, sometimes just for a check in, and other times to plan future steps in more detail. By joining our project group, you will get experience in working with international project management while gaining unique insights into democratic work related to youth, politics, and civil society in an interesting area and hotspot for geopolitical developments displayed in a local society and region. You will also gain experience with grants applications as well as financial management.

-
Is enthusiastic, flexible and open-minded;
-
Can commit to at least one year of volunteer work in our group
