The Youth Council specifically is responsible for looking after the young people of our city and offering a wide range of activities related to young people and European citizenship through non-formal and informal education programs such as Erasmus + and the European Corps of Solidarity among others. Our target audience is young people between 13 and 35 years old, whom we guide and inform about the possibilities that the European Union offers for their personal and professional development.

It is a very quiet and social neighborhood where the objective is focused on improving children's psychomotor skills through activities of all kinds, in addition to promoting intellectual-affective-social development. We try to create habits of autonomy in food, hygiene, health and well-being. The tasks of the volunteer are focused on presenting new challenges that imply the improvement of these habits, stimulate their reasoning and reinforce their achievements In this educational project the children are between 1 and 6 years old, mainly of Romanian and Gypsy origin. The activities at the school are very cordial and rewarding thanks to the great team of professionals that are part of the center, everyone received you in a warm and friendly way.
