About the volunteering opportunity

When can I believe a Facebook post? What relevance do the media have in politics? What influence do I have in democracy? What role does the EU play in my everyday life? These are questions that our seminar trainers will discuss openly in tandem with pupils from year 9 upwards. The workshop schedule and materials will be provided by the association and presented during the kick-off training session.

We are looking for reinforcements from October 2024

Your Tasks

You find this exciting and could imagine being part of the association? Then get in touch with us! Because we are looking to strengthen our team from October 2024. The training of the new seminar trainers will take place as part of an analogous kick-off training (18.-20.10.2024) in Weimar. Any costs incurred for the training will be borne by the association.

After successful participation in the training, you will be prepared to conduct four-hour courses in tandem at schools in your region.

If we have received appropriate funding, the courses will be remunerated with an appropriate expense allowance of 60-120 euros. If there is no third-party funding, courses are run on a voluntary basis.
