Connect Project
Open positions:
The Connect Team is searching for interested people to join our different subgroups and buddy projects. Our goal is to encourage and support people in building lasting, meaningful connections.
Inclusion is not a one-way street, but a process of learning and adapting on both sides. Hence, the Connect team sets up buddies/ groups consisting of refugees, students and Maastricht locals based on their common interests. To learn from each other, to understand different cultures and most importantly to befriend each other.
For this we are searching for volunteers to take in the position of a buddy or for volunteers that help in the organization of the team. Especially Dutch or Arabic/ Farsi speaking volunteers are needed.
Also refugees are more than welcome to volunteer with us and help in organizing projects of their choice. An example for this are Arabic classes taught by Syrian refugees.
Lastly, we are always looking for new inspirations. So if you have an idea for a project that you would like to realize we are happy to work on it together.
The necessary time commitment for volunteers varies. As a buddy you will have a lot of freedom and will independently discuss with your buddy or group the times to meet. Whereas if you want to help setting up a new project or help in organizing the existing ones, more dedication is necessary. The amount of time you have at hand can be discussed beforehand with us to ensure optimal joint effort.
If any of these positions interest you do not hesitate to contact us or ask questions via connect@refugeeprojectmaastricht.nl. We can also send you a more elaborate briefing for our projects.
