📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The "Luna si Noi" Association was established in 2021 with the aim of extending youth programs to young people in rural areas. We are a non-profit, non-governmental organization dedicated to non-formal education, culture, and youth opportunities. The organization aims to improve the level of personal development of young people living in rural areas of Dobrogea, through activities and events dedicated to non-formal learning, culture, opportunities, and the promotion of sustainable and responsible ecological behavior among young people. The organization aims to implement non-formal learning activities aimed at raising the level of personal development of young people. All founding members of the organization are young people from the target group and former volunteers who have participated in numerous projects, with a strong focus on volunteering activities, both within the European Solidarity Corps and in local projects. Thanks to this we can understand exactly the needs of young people in the target group and also the needs of volunteers, being passed through both roles: The young people who still live in rural areas and the volunteers in ESC projects.

Hands-on learning in youth work, podcasting, magazine creation, and project management. Build your creativity, leadership, and teamwork in a supportive space.

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
