Give educational lectures at schools in Kiel + surrounding area on the topic of malnutrition

Schools Against Hunger is our annual school project throughout Germany. For the region of Kiel and the surrounding area, we are looking for committed people who want to support us with our themed presentations. The sports and education project makes children and young people aware of the problem of malnutrition in the world. At the same time, it enables them to get socially involved in a sporting way. The project has three goals:

1. Education: The Schools Against Hunger team visits schools to inform children and young people about malnutrition, reports on the work in our project countries and how we are fighting hunger worldwide. Each year, we offer new thematic focuses, such as the links between climate change and hunger.

2. Sports: The children and young people then get involved in sports for a world without hunger. As a rule, the schools organize a charity run. The students have previously mobilized their families and friends as sponsors: For each lap they run, they receive a fixed donation amount, which motivates them in their social commitment and at the same time supports the work of Aktion gegen den Hunger.

3 .A world without hunger: In recent years, Action against Hunger has been able to help more than 28 million people in around 55 countries and regions in areas such as nutrition, water and hygiene.

The Schools Against Hunger team handles both the acquisition of schools and the organization and delivery of educational presentations nationwide. We are looking for committed volunteers who want to support the project from the Kiel region and surrounding areas. In close contact and exchange with our staff, you would travel to the schools and deliver our educational lectures to the school classes. Your residence should preferably be in Kiel or the surrounding area. The content of the lectures is already prepared. During a two-day workshop you will be prepared in detail for the lecture and equipped with background knowledge about malnutrition, its causes and our work in the respective project countries. In addition, you will be shown pedagogical tools and methods that promise sustainable success for your presentations.

We are convinced that no human being in the world has to suffer from hunger. Action against Hunger fights for a world without hunger and need. For all. Forever. Our goal: to save lives and restore hope to people in need. For over 40 years we have been fighting malnutrition, creating access to clean water and health care.
