ℹ️ Additional information
With us, you can benefit from the stable structures of our voluntary services. The further development of your skills is very important to us. You are never alone in your work. At your side is a practical instructor who will accompany you throughout the voluntary activity. The instructors can draw from their many years of experience and are also specialists in their respective activities. You will also have a mentor from the voluntary service team at your disposal. You can contact them at any time and you will be in regular contact with them.
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).

- Training before and after the project
