ESC: Democracy 2

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Democracy 2 is an ESC (European Solidarity Corps) project. The period of volunteer traineeships is of 363 days, in which the days spent in Romania represents the activities. The activities will take place between 01 April 2024 – 31 March 2025. Through this project, we wish to bring together a number of 6 volunteers: 1 from Romania and 5 from Europe. They will stay one year in Romania, from 01 April 2024 to 31 March 2025. DEMOCRACY 2 is a project that aims to encourage young people to take part in political and social fields such as youth participation in democratic life, support social and civic engagement and achievement of being active citizens. The aim of the project is to encourage young people and citizens from local communities in Romania, but also in rural areas in UE to understand the active citizenship and the role of European institutions.

🏠 Accommodation on site

For this ESC project, the participants will be accommodated in Ciorogarla and will be provided by a youth student’s dormitory with 2 or 3 bed placements in one room. Each participant will have at least 1 roommate, but no more than 2. The participants may be placed in the same room with participants from other countries so that they will interact and bond with their fellow roommates. The division will be by gender. The bathrooms will be on the corridor and not in the rooms. Participants are asked to bring personal things such as shampoo, toothpaste, shower gel, hairdryer, towels, flip-flops.

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).
