Ecotopia Biketour is looking for a* Dutch* EVS volunteer to work in 
Bulgaria

(with trips to Serbia and Turkey) from 1st May 2008, for 6 months.

Because of funding the volunteer must be resident in Netherlands before 
begining the placement, the EVS scheme is open to those under 30 yrs old.

Ecotopia Biketour has been promoting sustainable transport and getting 
participants to the annual Ecotopia gathering for over 15 years. 
Pedaling through a different part of Europe every year, it is for anyone 
interested in do-it-yourself culture, social and ecological justice. 
Moving all our stuff by muscle power, Biketour links with local 
environmental campaigns en route. For example, taking part in action or 
workshops. We create an international, mobile eco-community as well as 
joining local direct-action. We will visit interesting places on our 
way: alternative, environmental, artistic projects and communities, 
nature areas and people who preserve them or resist their destruction.

The job of an EVS volunteer will be to:
- Live in Bulgaria for 6 months,
    to get to know local environmental campaigns,
- Cycle the route of Biketour to test suitablility,
    know the hills etc,
- Find (cheap) accomodation along the route for 20+ cyclists,
    campsites, schools, community-halls etc.
- Proivide route maps to biketour participants in summer 2008,
- Take part in the biketour summer 2008,
- Organise Biketour's participation in actions and campaigns
    along the route, together with local activists:
    eg. - Critical Mass in some towns,
        - A demonstartion, banners, leaflets etc against illegal forrestry,
        - A a campaign against proposed oil pipelines in Bulgaria.

Ecotopia Biketour 2008 will focus on energy issues, pipelines, 
power-stations etc.

The EVS volunteer should have the following skills:
- They must like bikes and cycling,
    any experience of bicycle-touring would be an advantage.
- Good spoken English is important as English is the common language
    of most Biketour participants.
- Ability to communicate by email and telephone (mostly in English)
    and organise parts of biketour from a distance is essential.
- Any experience of online tools, email-lists, website-development,
    blogging etc would be an advantage.
- Skills in making links with the local community,
    and local activists/environmentalists,
...any experience of building local environmental campaigns would be an 
advantage.
- Ability to produce leaflets, press-releases and other written materials
    (mostly in English) to promote the Biketour.
- Ability to work with local contacts to organise translation of
    materials into local language(s)
- Any knowledge of Bulgarian, Serbina or Turkish language would
    be an advantage but is not expected.

The EVS scheme will fund travel expenses, accomodation and other expense 
for the volunteer so most living costs will be met but the position is 
not paid.
