The aim is to provide the opportunity for a group of 12 people (8 Portuguese, 2 French and 2 Georgian people) to explore together a multi-cultural environment, while at the same time immersing themselves in the volunteering universe while establishing relationships and learning from each other.
Therefore, the project will feature 3 main activities:
Artistic rehabilitation of urban spaces; Development of activities for an elders' home; give support to a local association and its beneficiaries.
The aim is that volunteers are not only able to be part of activities, but also that they understand the phases and how to prepare local volunteering opportunities.
All these activities will enable volunteers to be in direct contact with the local community, as well a activities will enable volunteers to be in direct contact with the local community,

During their time in Ozurgeti, the volunteers will have the opportunity to have a brief course of Georgian Language, as well enjoy a city tour and receive a short training about the Georgian cultural (that will include study visits to local singing and dancing ensembles and explore the surroundings of Ozurgeti).
Besides that, both sending and host organizations will prepare short sessions about the Erasmus+ programme and Youth Pass.
⚠️ Requirements
The Participant profil: They should have an adventurous spirit, be people that enjoy to work in teams and, above all, like to interact with others (children, youngsters, elder people, ...).
The selected participants should be prepared to face a language barrier - many people in Ozurgeti don't know English -, so we need people that think that they will not discourage easily and, are able to deal and overcome difficulties. Besides that, they should be prepared to live and share space/home with new people from different cultures. We are looking for people that believe in the power and impact that volunteering.
