About the project

ESC: Association for Shared Learning ELA

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Association for Shared Learning ELA is working with children and young people, helping them find their way in life and/or overcome a difficult stage they are going through. After many years of work on various national and European projects, today we have focused our efforts in: 1. To create a Green Education Center in the village of Sturgel, Bulgaria where we can continue to support children in their growth by implementing our programs for non-formal education. 2. We work with children from vulnerable groups and refugee children in our office in Sofia, where we provide them with educational support. 3. We raise funds and conduct outdoor children's camps, where children from different ethnic groups and nationalities get to know themselves and overcome their prejudices towards others in a playful and non-formal way.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accommodation for the 360-day mobility period, monthly food allowance, pocket money and local transport are provided. Funds for plane tickets are covered within the projected project budget.

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteer will be included in the cycle of training organised by the National Agency and will receive introductory training related to the performance of the tasks, as well as all necessary additional training to evaluate the learning outcomes. The participant will get access to the OLS platform for training in the Bulgarian language.

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).
