Vacancy: EVS volunteer for ‘Global Reboot’ is looking for 1 volunteer to help with communications and 1 volunteer to work in education!
Program duration: 12 months starting 13 September 2017.
Deadlines to Apply: 31 July 2017.
About the initiative:
CATAPA – Comité Académico Técnico de Asesoramiento a Problemas Ambientales , literally Technical Academic Committee for Assistance on Environmental Issues– is a volunteer organization in Belgium.
We are active in the fields of globalization and sustainable development in Latin America and focus on the problems caused by modern open pit mining (ecological disasters, human rights violations, etc.). We support local communities threatened by multinational mining corporations. The mining industry’s impact on the social, economic, cultural and ecological level is often disastrous and fundamentally unjust.
We aim to alter these structural causes of poverty and exclusion by forming a resolute front with the social society in the North and South. We have partner organizations in three Latin American countries (Bolivia, Colombia and Peru).
CATAPA was founded in 2005. We are about 100 young volunteers and over 1000 subscribers strong. We offer a specific, action bound commitment for anyone who believes that another world is possible. By raising awareness, networking, research, lobbying and exchange we intend to make the mining industry as well as the consumption of metals more just for man and environment.
