Summary
Content Creators to work with our team of content creation volunteers to design, generate ideas and plans for LinkedIn and other social media platformsDetailed description
Our content is planned around showcasing our organization’s journey and commitment to nature protection, regeneration, and education. If you have experience as a graphic designer, animator, documentary movie maker, Marketeer, or if you think you can come up with relatable and engaging social media posts, your expertise would be beneficial to us.

Who we are:
Welcome to Viable Community, a non-profit organization rooted in the European Union. At the heart of our mission is the establishment of community-managed projects dedicated to the preservation and regeneration of nature. We are currently a community of 50 active volunteers and envisioning a project which is in the conceptual/development phase that aims to combat desertification in Extremadura, Spain. We will cover the soil with solar panels (AgriVoltaics) and give space to indigenous vegetation. We then integrate regenerative agriculture to create an opportunity for people to invest, as well as donate their time, money and efforts.

Our ways of working
- Short, focused weekly coordination meetings: These sessions aim to enhance efficiency and collaboration. The emphasis is on quick, targeted discussions that facilitate seamless task execution. In these meetings, teams come together to discuss:
- personal progress on assigned tasks
- what’s needed to finish the task (identify potential obstructions)
- assigning tasks and setting the sprint for the upcoming week.
- Circle governance meetings: These sessions are scheduled when there are enough topics to discuss. In these sessions, we can come up with new suggestions, discuss processes, and vote on certain topics. We can decide on who’s responsible for what and who will be coordinating
- Tech we use: Google workspace (Drive, Meet, Calendar, Mail, Docs, Sheets) | Slack (chat based communication platform) | ClickUp (task management system) | Canva (graphic design tool) | LinkedIn
