💼 What the programme involves

The "Green Hands Burgos" project arrives to its 6th edition, hosting two volunteers in Ábrego Association and two volunteers in Huerteco Association. The main objective of "Green Hands Burgos" is to promote environmental education as well as to encourage rural development, through the activities that will be developed in the different organisations and through the activities focused on sustainable development and environmental protection issues. Furthermore, the project will represent an opportunity for intercultural learning for the volunteers and entities involved, who will participate in the project to promote cooperation and solidarity. The main mission of the Ábrego Association is to make Burgos citizens aware of the need to get involved in order to generate changes that improve and enrich people's lives.

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).
