This project is part of an international recognized NGO whose aim is to combine art (such as music, alternative education and handcrafts) with social work in order to let children and adults integrate better into the society. The project has a great vision on what they are doing and have been awarded internationally. It opened it doors in 1993 and since then it has grown a lot. Nowadays, it is a well-established organization with a regular staff, a central office and several cultural centers. In those cultural centers they provide services such as expositions, music classes and educational workshops in order to achieve a social transformation. Since this NGO has worked very hard to get its international recognition, the selection procedure to participate in this project is a bit different.

Can I do an Internship with no Spanish knowledge: The success of your Internship depends essentially on your Spanish knowledge. Participants must show at least an intermediate level to become an intern. Advanced Spanish levels are sometimes required for specific placements.

Remember that the more Spanish you know, the more responsabilities you are going to get and the more successfull your placement will be.
