ASOCIATIA LUMEA LUI PINOCCHIO PANCIU, Romania Volunteer opportunity: Sport and movements as a tool for inclusion
Our daily center Lumea Lui Pinocchio has the main mission to support disadvantaged children by offering them a safe space. Every day, the children benefit from non-formal educational activities, help with their homework, as well as a warm lunch and snack. Most of the children come from the Roma community, where families often face high levels of illiteracy and unemployment. This activity encourages children to engage in sports and movement, fostering mental, physical, and emotional development. The program includes indoor and outdoor activities to promote well-being and social skills like teamwork and communication. Tasks: - Organize Sports & Dance Activities - Encourage Teamwork - Adapt to Skill Levels - Promote Inclusivity - Monitor Progress - Assist the children with their homework - Support the local staff and the other volunteers to foster a supportive, inclusive environment for the children.
