About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Paide Youth Centre is a welcoming youth centre in the heart of Estonia that offers young people a safe, supportive and inspiring environment for learning, creativity, socialising and active participation. The centre works with young people from different backgrounds and supports their personal growth, inclusion and confidence through non-formal learning and youth work. As an ESC volunteer, you would support daily youth centre activities, build connections with local young people, help organise workshops, games and community events, contribute your own ideas and talents, and share your culture in an international learning environment. This project offers valuable experience in youth work, community engagement and personal development. It is also a great opportunity to develop communication, teamwork and intercultural skills while making a meaningful contribution to the local community.

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).
