Vacant job

Navet in Bergsjön is a non-profit organization for the residents and civil society in Bergsjön. Navet aims to be a resource center and an open meeting place for the exercise of democracy, culture, and personal education.

Bergsjön is a district in Gothenburg with a rich cultural and association life, where local engagement, entrepreneurial drives, and community are at the center. At the same time, the area is characterized by increasing socioeconomic gaps that require greater collaboration between the non-profit sector, engaged citizens, the public sector, and businesses to create equal conditions and increased participation in society. Navet in Bergsjön plays an important role in that work. The association also works a lot with cultural issues and the opportunities for the residents of Bergsjön to influence matters concerning the area and their ability to organize.

Since 2018, the association has undergone an exciting restart and expanded its activities by developing initiatives aimed at, among others, young people from the area and local entrepreneurs. The association has gone from having only volunteer forces to today having 6 full-time and part-time employees and running many different projects and activities.
