Danish ICYE is looking for a new deputy chairman for the local association North Jutland

Danish ICYE is an exchange and youth organization under DUF (Danish Youth Council), which works to reduce cultural barriers and thus help create more peace in the world across national borders - which is really relevant right now! At Lokalforening Nordjylland, we contribute to this by arranging cultural activities for people from all over the world in Denmark - and we need you, your curiosity, your ideas and commitment!

As a volunteer in the local association North Jutland, you get the opportunity to be part of a cross-cultural community, where you and other volunteers get involved in creating both small and large (cultural) experiences for volunteers in the association and young volunteers who are in Denmark on one of the Danish ICYE's exchange programs.

This means lots of cozy and cultural events that bring people closer together here in North Jutland. At the same time, you become part of a larger community at national level - and not least of an international federation and an international community that provides opportunities for participation in international workshops, trainings, projects etc.

We are looking for you who want to:

• Represent the board and the Danish ICYE
• Lead the work of the board, delegate responsibilities / tasks and have an overview
• Lead meetings, prepare agendas, write minutes, send invitations, keep emails etc.
• Keep in touch with the secretariat and collaborate across the organization
• Participate in board meetings and activities in the local association and at the national level
• Contribute an average of 4 hours per. week. However, it can vary depending on the period and how much you choose to engage

We offer you:

• A lot of fun experiences and the opportunity to get to know young people from all over the world
• Opportunity for participation in events at national level, i.a. camps, summer house trips and courses
• Opportunity for participation in trainings abroad: https://www.icye.dk/category/training-course/
• Great influence and room for initiatives
• An international community that seeks to promote the meeting and create understanding across cultures
• Experience with board work in a youth association - a little good for the CV

Who are you?

• You are responsible, independent and make sure that the tasks are done
• You like talking to people from different backgrounds
• You thrive on administrative tasks
• You are available in everyday life
• You do not need to have experience with board work. The most important thing is that you want to be part of the local association's community.

All tasks in the local associations are carried out by volunteers with the help of the secretariat in Aarhus.

Who are we?
The Danish ICYE (International Cultural Youth Exchange) is a non-profit exchange organization primarily for young people between 16-30 years. We send both Danish young people out into the world for exchange and volunteer work and receive foreign volunteers to Denmark. The idea is that young people from all over the world should have the opportunity to travel and meet new cultures.

We are looking forward to hear from you!

The best greetings

Local association North Jutland
