About the project

ESC: Blue Horizon

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The primary objective of the project is to foster the participation of children and young individuals in community affairs while supporting endeavors that advance active citizenship, sustainable development, and non-formal education. The initiative engages 12 ESC volunteers, who will assist in facilitating community mini-projects initiated voluntarily by children and young people, with guidance from the ESC volunteers. Recognizing the significance of civic engagement among children and youth within their communities, the project seeks to nurture their development as future adults while also contributing to the broader societal fabric, which often grapples with passivity and a dearth of civic involvement. The project operates on the premise that active participation is best cultivated through practical engagement rather than mere instruction in norms and rules. Thus, the emphasis is on hands-on involvement within the community.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Get ready for a cozy adventure, volunteers! You'll bunk up in fully furnished apartments (3 to 4 volunteers per pad) with a communal kitchen, bathroom, and dorm area. Roomies will be of the same gender for extra fun and comfort. Your cozy setup includes bed sheets, a pillow, and a blanket - just BYOT (Bring Your Own Towel)! The kitchen is stocked with the essentials for your culinary masterpieces - plates, cutlery, pots, glasses, and cups. Enjoy complimentary utilities, as long as you're a responsible user.

🎒 Leisure activities

Volunteers will attend the On-Arrival Training and Mid-Term Meeting, organized by the Romanian National Agency. Volunteers will receive mentorship sessions throughout the project and Romanian language classes. They will receive ongoing support from activity coordinators, teachers and staff of our organization.

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).
