Anne Frank Youth Network 2023/2024

Activity description

[Applications, along with an obligatory motivation letter & CV, must both go via the ESC portal and to the email esc@annefrank.nl] The volunteer will contribute to the educational activities of the Anne Frank House (AFH). Based in Amsterdam, the ESC volunteer will mainly assist the Anne Frank Youth Network (AFYN) and the educational toolbox against discrimination Stories that Move (StM). The daily work consists of managing social media, keeping in touch with the Dutch and international members of AFYN, doing research, preparing workshops and providing practical assistance. The activities of the AFH aim to tell the story of Anne Frank and the history of her time. The AFH also makes this history relevant for today. Please visit the website of the Anne Frank House (section: ‘education’) for details regarding the educational outreach activities, including AFYN and StM. The AFH is looking for two ESC volunteers. The ESC project at the AFH will start on 1 September 2023 until 31 August 2024.

The Anne Frank House provides accommodation for individual use (a studio apartment with kitchen and bathroom) at a distance of approx. 4 km from the office. Further, a monthly instalment of €500 pocket money will be provided.

The volunteers will be introduced to the educational concepts of the AFH and they will learn how to work in a project team. At the start of the service, the standard ESC language course will be offered.
