The office is situated near Russian boarder, and has a very nice view. VITATEAM office is at the same time Info Support Centre, where is possible to get information and help of workers during the day (possibility to use Internet to find information, print needed information or get infobooklets).

Local infrastructure is good. There are buses as well from Narva to other cities in Estonia and Russia as well every day. Most important industries are textile production and electricity industry, and tourism. Near Narva city is Narva-Jõesuu resort town (12 km from Narva city), where is very nice during the summer and very peaceful during the winter. The climate of Narva-Jõesuu is very good for health. VITATEAM activities takes place in different parts of Ida-Viru County. Narva city is a boarder town to Russia (due to geographical situation Narva city is a majority with Russian speaking population (96%) and minority in Estonia).

VITATEAM would like to be more active regarding youth and show all the possibilities that there are today with youth exchanges and discovery of new cultures, and by that also achieve a positive approach among the youth. The volunteer will get the possibilities to learn from a new culture and to get a good insight into a foreign language (Russian and Estonian), a culture democratic system, ways to solve problems, social rights and the public service. And youth will get the possibility to learn a lot from volunteer as well.

We offer:

- the accommodation,

- a possibility to learn Russian and Estonian languages (in practice it is come to use Russian),

- also at the beginning of EVS service we provide info training on being, living and working here (the volunteer will get a good fulfilling introduction including knowledge of the society, culture, history and day to day life in Narva and its surroundings. The first weeks will be focused on those matters and solving practical issues, more than the project work itself)

Proposed activities for EVS volunteers:

VITATEAM support always people, and do not forget to support own stuff. There are always possibilities to learn something new at work, and outside in everyday life, and also we are always aware of existing courses and trainings. All EVS project is going to be learning opportunities.

The volunteer always works together with the members of our staff.

The role of EVS volunteers in the host organisation is to be part of one team in developing strategically directions and implementing activities on local, regional and European level. Especially EVS volunteers are welcome to help us with European activities (international youth and youth workers projects). And also taking care of VITATEAM homepage in a future (in English or volunteer mother tongue).

-the volunteers will inform local youth regarding the volunteers own region, which is probably quite unknown in Ida-Viru County (and we do understand that in the beginning the language will not be the main tool: will be offered to use different tools like painting, and at the beginning we can work with youth at age under 13 years old). This information will be a brief information regarding history and culture with the aim to spread knowledge of the region volunteer comes from and to start a communication and an interest to learn more of the volunteers region. There is going to be info section of volunteer home region in Info Support Centre and homepage.

And at the beginning we try to give work connected to making designs, posters for events, info leaflets, etc. (where is no need to have very good language skills)

- support youth in their initiatives with international projects and local as well (we have a group of youth who wishes to open youth café in Narva city, for example) or intercultural clubs.

EVS in Germany “Living and Learning in the one-world-house”

“Living and Learning in the one-world-house” is a long term project taking place from March 1st 2011 – February 29th 2012 for two volunteers in Magdeburg. Both volunteers will work as an assistant to an AGSA employee in a specific field of work, and each will have his/her own working place in a shared office. In the practical work one volunteer will develop our website and design flyers and reports etc. The other will be mainly involved in organising and carrying out the many events for young people, such as information events, training courses, youth meetings, and exhanges etc. This can also create new possibilities to take part in our international work and to lead youngsters to take part in youth exchanges, volunteer work or youth education. In their work the volunteers will share the experiences with six other volunteers, started from October 1st 2010…

At the same time the volunteers will improve their knowledge of German and their language skills, which will be useful for their future career opportunities. During the year the volunteers are expected to develop an independent manner and to carry out a personal project.

The accommodation for the volunteers is a shared community-flat, shared with European or national volunteers from ours and others organisation but also with students. The volunteers will have their own room and they will share the kitchen and bath room.

General selection criteria of the volunteer:
We are looking for volunteers with good teamwork skills, with initiative, with creativity and with a desire to challenge themselves. They should be open to new experiences and have an interest in international and political work. Specific interests in antiracism work and intercultural work or cultural interests, or in working with internet and photo/ video are an advantage, but not essential. The young people must be prepared to have flexible working hours and weekend work (with compensatory days off during the following week).

Interested volunteers should send us their applications directly by October 15th. After this date we will begin to process the applications; volunteers should be prepared to take part in a telephone interview if necessary.

General tasks of the volunteer
The project "living and learning in the One-World House" is a long-term opportunity to participate in the design and content of our youth projects and to explore diverse fields of activity. If the volunteers so desires, they may also take part in further education offers, such as workshops, seminars or trainings offered by AGSA, its members or partners. When deciding on the volunteer’s activities, their requests and interests are a central consideration.

Both EVS volunteers will work in the international youth work section, and will have several areas of responsibility; each will also be responsible for developing and carrying out a personal project.

The first volunteer will be heavily involved in our website, and will be responsible for ensuring that this is kept up-to-date. Tasks include:

- information about our youth exchanges, evs-projects and trainings and also the reviews
- keeping the social forum and blogs interactive (see www.eurocamp-agsa.eu)
drafting and creating informational material, e.g. leaflets, posters and publications


The second volunteer will be involved in preparing and carrying out international youth exchanges, trainings and seminars. Of particular importance in this regard is the Eurocamp, an annual meeting of more than 80 young people from over 30 European countries. Tasks include:
