Mentoring by fokusnetzwerk
Kanton Zürich
Tutto l'anno
Società
As a mentor for fokusnetzwerk, you can use your knowledge and experience to help refugees gain new perspectives and enjoy a richer life in Swiss society. Together with a person from a refugee background, you can practice German over a coffee or during a walk, pursue a hobby or complete math homework together.
Of course, there are other areas that you can choose, or you can suggest your own.
At fokusnetzwerk you can work with a refugee for six months on an area that suits your strengths and interests.
