About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The general aim of the project is to foster the participation, empowerment, social and civic engagement of young people by promoting and facilitating connections, relationships and the exchange of experiences across cultures. The project will engage a team of young volunteers from various European countries in non-formal education activities aimed at promoting social inclusion for people with fewer opportunities. Main activities will include: • Intercultural and intergenerational workshops, designed to encourage dialogue, mutual understanding, and solidarity between different cultures and age groups. • Mental health education and wilderness therapy, offering young people tools to build resilience and self-awareness while reconnecting with nature. • Sports, leisure, and recreational activities, fostering a healthy lifestyle, teamwork, and a sense of community. All activities will be implemented in Oristano, a town located on the west coast of Sardinia (Italy).

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers will be accommodated in a private apartment offering comfortable double rooms and shared facilities, including a kitchen, living room, and bathroom. Each volunteer will receive a daily allowance of €11.00 (covering both pocket money and food expenses) to support their living costs and any additional personal expenses during the project. Travel costs will be reimbursed in accordance with the European Commission’s distance band calculator, based on the distance between the place of residence and Oristano.

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).
