    About the program

    This program will enhance and develop the skills of any student with enough motivation and good background in some of the areas mentioned, while also providing a wonderful cultural opportunity for an intrepid traveler. 
    This is a true volunteer program, where volunteers get stuck in and truly contribute to Schools' work. Volunteers will write original articles, edit work, develop strategies on social media and digital trends, update social media and be a true member of the news team as they report on news around the region. Volunteers will find this to be a hugely rewarding program, gaining real life experience in Spain, networking with colleagues and building a resume of work.

    Volunteers will contribute in a number of ways and can expect to undertake some of the following tasks:
    • Writing articles in English or any other language where they are fluent 
    • Assist with social media pages and groups on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Instagram
    • Use Multimedia content to connect people emotionally to pressing social, gender and environmental causes
    • Developing and maintaining a social media strategy that can help the School secure its leadership in Spain and enhance its visibility

    • Take photographs and/or video documentation and report, interview, write and edit content related to our program
