Context of the Project and Service Description
AMYCOS works in this town where it was founded. Although most of our work is focused on the South, AMYCOS carries out different actions in development education in Burgos. Collaborating as well with the reception and integration of immigrants, and cooperating with other NGOs and promoting volunteering.

EVS project will involve 3 volunteers coming from different countries (Poland, Greece, France). They will be inserted for 11 months, from the 6th of September 2017 until the 5th of August 2018, with AMYCOS, the city of Burgos. In detail, the volunteers will be working closely with AMYCOS’s staff and will have the opportunity to learn according with the methodology of the “learning by doing”. Actually, the project aims to involve a volunteer in each of the three main action areas and following activities.

The volunteer will be directly involved in the „solidarity” workshops and in the daily organization of the centre called „Foro Solidario”. The main activities are aimed at pupils of Primary and Secondary Schools, as well as, groups of all ages belonging to associations or other groups of Burgos.

They are in more precarious situations, promoting their rights and contributing to their social, professional and cultural integration in the city and to enjoy a respectable life. AMYCOS, with his team of volunteers and in collaboration with other organizations of Burgos, carries out various activities in a several spheres. The volunteer will attend day by day the social dining service and the distribution of food and clothes bags. The second sphere is connected with the education and training, in this context the volunteer will attend the Primary and High school support for the sons and daughters of immigrants in the afternoon.

Immigrant’s leisure time. Basically the volunteer will actively promote the organization of events and social activities, such as „The Cafetín” served twice a day after Spanish classes, indoor soccer games, guided tours to nearby cities, celebrations, etc.
