Calling volunteers for the 15th Festival of Equal Oppurtunities (15.F=M)

Would you want your personality and volunteer work to contribute to a single public event but with good fun and to earn useful experience and meet new people? Join the organizational team at the 15th Festival of Equal Opportunities (15. F=M)

The festival pairs people with disabilities, who with artists, perform on a musical stage or other art programs, and in educational-recreational and sports games. The goal of the festival is to publicly show the creative possibilities of the performers, with the larger goal that people with disabilities have the same duties and obligations as other citizens. The three day street festival contains over 900 performers including international performers, of which 600 have disabilities.

The Festival takes place on the 17^th-19^th of May 2016 (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday) at Trg bana Josipa Jelacica in Zagreb, with the daily program schedule from 10-22h. Obligatory education and preparation of the volunteers will take place on the 4^th and 11^th of May 2016, from 15h to 20h at the Faculty of Electrotechnics and Computing (FER), Unska 3, dvorana B4.

Final date for applications for volunteers: until the quota of 180 volunteers is met.

Way to apply: web page fm.dti.hr or leaving personal information (name and last name, OIB, name of school, year of study, telephone number, email address, number of times volunteering for F=M, do you sing or do contemporary dance) at the tel. 4854-182, 099/8033-931, 098/314-472, email: dti@dti.hr, in person at the Society of the Physically Disabled in Zagreb, Ilica 138 (or Bosanska 2) from 9-17h.
