About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The Activism Collectors Project is a new initiative that aims to engage young people in social change. The project will bring together volunteers from different countries to work with the hosting organisation of EUROSUD in Triggiano, Italy, on a variety of projects. Besides helping with the hosting organisation’s activities, the volunteers will have a chance to tightly integrate with the community by helping the staff chef instructors and local staff to prepare meals for homeless and disadvantaged people, as well as supporting the ETHNIC COOK bar-bistro where besides eating healthy, they may promote Brazilian culture, Afro-Brazilian culture, diaspora culture, and organise events such as debates, concerts, shows, dance seminars , cooking lessons. They will also get a chance to work at The Bike Project which is a great way to learn more about cycling and bike repair and also help kids with specific learning disorders within the context of the PLEIADI association.

ℹ️ Additional information

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).
