The International Mosaic Committee is looking is looking for a motivated, committed and Mosaic-experienced CISVer to work as a trainee in the committee during the year 2008/09.

The traineeship is also a good way to learn more about the Mosaic programme and the work done on the international level.
The Mosaic Programme
Mosaic is a project based programme which empowers individuals and chapters to be agents of change, reach out, and involve as many people as possible. Each project is a separate experience that relates to a local need and interest and involves a different target group. It does not have to be in a camp setting, as with many CISV programmes, but is designed according to the needs and abilities of the CISV chapter. Using the three phase educational approach of discover, understand and create, local members develop projects in conjunction with like minded organizations or community groups. The aim is to create an authentic learning experience for participants and deliver a benefit to the wider community. The last years we have since an immense development of projects in all regions of the world.
