💼 What the programme involves

APPLY here: www.logo.at/esc | Volunteer Opportunity to shape the future of Europe while promoting European values among young people. EYFON - European Youth Forum, located at the historic Castle Forchenstein in Neumarkt/Styria, serves as a meeting point for youth across Europe, providing a space for discussions on essential topics such as Individual nationality versus European identity, Tolerance and diversity across Europe's regions, or Cultural characteristics and approaches to migration. Our events combine professional talks, presentations, and workshops with social activities, cultural excursions, and sports events to ensure an enriching experience for participants. As a volunteer, you will support the planning and management of events, capture the experience through photography and manage social media updates, accompany participants during excursions, social events, and sports activities, and contribute your own ideas for workshops and activities.

🏠 Accommodation on site

A proper accommodation in Neumarkt is offered. Two volunteers will live in a flat, each will have separate rooms. Transport costs for the region will be covered.

🍲 Food

Self-allowance for food is 10€/day, pocket money is 7€/day. They receive food allowance. During the events at the castle, there is a catering service, so volunteers can eat there. What type of food volunteers eat depend on them.

🎒 Leisure activities

Neumarkt is a village, so most of activities are outdoors, in the nature (swimming, hiking, cycling). However, volunteers can travel around the region (there are good public transport options), find clubs to join (orchestra, etc.), so the leisure activities depend mostly on individuals, their interests and needs. There are some common activities organised for all ESC volunteers as well. During the Welcome Meeting volunteers receive information about places to visit or other activities, and can ask their mentor for support, if they want to do anything specific.

ℹ️ Additional information

Volunteer will participate in On-Arrival Training, organized by the National Agency. They will be able to attend german classes. The organisation provides task related support, supervision, and guidance through experienced staff.

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).
