MUNTERwegs is a mentoring program for children aged 5 to 12.
Would you like to join our project as a mentor for children? We are currently in need of support and so would be grateful to have you on board. MUNTERwegs is a mentoring project that assigns volunteers to children from migrant and non-migrant backgrounds. The program contributes to cultural integration, promotes equal opportunities and enables participants to actively participate in social life. The project takes place at various MUNTERwegs locations and is mainly geared towards children aged between 5 and 12 from migrant backgrounds and vulnerable Swiss families. Volunteers receive support in regular group events and coaching sessions.

MUNTERwegs è un progetto di mentoring (ovvero di formazione e orientamento) che mette in contatto volontari con bambini e giovani sia di origine straniera che locale. Il programma contribuisce così all'integrazione, alla partecipazione culturale e alle pari opportunità dei partecipanti ed offre loro l'occasione di prendere parte attivamente alla vita sociale.
