    The Location 
    Bilbao is a city of harmonious contradictions. From sleek modern architecture, exemplified by the iconic Guggenheim Museum, to the timeless charm of its historic old town, every corner tells a unique story. Nestled along the Bay of Biscay, Bilbao boasts beautiful beaches and seafront promenades that beckon you to unwind and soak in the coastal beauty. The warm and welcoming nature of the Basque people ensures you'll feel at home, no matter where you go.
    Usually training will be at the local soccer field or gym. Sometimes you will make training at the beach.
    The Tasks
    Be prepared to do a little bit of everything! One of our core values is that everything is important. Some days we will be marking the field for the big game, teaching English to our players, preparing trainings, performing personalized training, leading physical training sessions, working with the emigrant community in different fields where you can enjoy and do something for the others etc. The key to keep in mind is that EVERY thing we do is of great importance. You will work alongside and under the leadership of our coaching staff. One key to your success will be to develop proactive leadership skills. We will schedule out a lot of things with you, but we welcome new ideas!

    Over de organisatie

    Instituto Hemingway is a worker-run service cooperative that works the local network of NGOs, associations and social enterprises with international volunteers.

    Ontmoet je organisatie


    Our vision is to promote international volunteerism, local associations and social enterprises by strategically matching international volunteer with local talents and creative thinking. Our goal is to function as a hub of innovative ideas and projects that can have a positive impact on Bilbao and the surrounding region. To that purpose we are constructing a community of social innovators - an international network that combines the energy and passion of volunteers from all over the world with the knowledge and skills of local NGOs, associations and social enterprises.

    Volunteers work with the International Bilbao Network to support the causes of many Bilbao associations, NGOs, and public schools. Our local partners are committed to fostering social inclusion – in particular with regard to children at risk and migrants – as well as promoting local cultural heritage, English language,  animal care and environmental protection. The different organisations are committed to fostering social inclusion – in particular with regard to children at risk, migrants and homeless – as well as promoting local cultural heritage, English language, and environmental protection.

    We are located in downtown Bilbao, just a few meters from  Gran Via in the historical centre. Instituto Hemingway is hosted in a 19th-century building across two floors and a rooftop terrace with a panoramic view.
