Due to the development of the Plac Grunwaldzki OD NOWA Local Activity Center run by the Ładne Historie Foundation, we are looking for a person to join our team responsible for local community animation.
Fundacja Ładne Historie was established in 2016 by activists focused on integration, animation, respite care, education, culture, and local heritage. The foundation operates in Lower Silesia, with offices in Świdnica and Wrocław. We work with communities of diverse ages and cultures, inspiring collaboration, fostering creativity and encouraging creation, teaching mutual respect and empathy, mobilizing local leaders, and building a growing group of people who want to make a difference for others.
