About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

CulturALL is a project combining culture, ecology and wellbeing on different level. Volunteers will work in the Special School hepling teachers in their everyday work: feeding children, assisting during classes, helping with wheelchairs during the walks around the city or to another cities, participate in preparations for the activities, preparing special events for students, for example volunteer's day. But in the same time they participate in the project based on creativity, art, building relations and discovering/developing many skills. The plan is to prepare performance for children from all hostig organisations, to learn more about upcycling, to work on communication with others, to be ready to get more information about well-being.

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).
