At Alquimia Social we have pre-structured methodologies ready to implement. Our main approaches cover education in menstrual health, female empowerment, sex education for children, self-care, territorial protection, and risk prevention on social networks. By joining our team, we invite you to be a key piece in the execution of these programs, becoming that first friendly, present, and empathetic face who connects directly with the community.
Your tasks will be focused on action and direct community contact. In the days prior, you will support us in the outreach (inviting children and sharing information with the community). On workshop days, your role will be to adapt the spaces, greet the attendees, and provide ongoing support with materials and snacks. Additionally, we need your creative support to document the impact by recording videos and creating audiovisual content that showcases the results of the projects.
The fundamental pillar of our convivencia is absolute respect at all times: toward the populations of the projects, your teammates, and the housing spaces (always taking care of the place). We believe in active and assertive communication; there will always be an open space to dialogue and listen to each other. Finally, we highly value stable self-care; we want you to maintain your well-being so you can give the best of yourself to the community.
