About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Join our mission to revive the spirits of residents in Sisak-Moslavina County, Croatia. After facing the aftermath of an earthquake and the ongoing pandemic, the local community yearns for cultural and social activities. We're creating a Social-Cultural Center to rekindle the community's passion for culture, offer engaging experiences, and empower young people to take the lead. As a DKC Volunteer, you'll be at the heart of this revitalization. Participate in and support a range of socio-cultural activities like exhibitions, festivals, concerts, dance nights, workshops, educative content, skill share and more. Most events will be at our container socio cultural center, outdoors or in pop-up format due to the earthquake's impact on infrastructure. Your responsibilities would include assistance in existing ones but also production of activities and your own ideas in the sphere of culture with emphasis on social impact and vulnerable groups.

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).
