🏢 About the local organisation

Omnis Factum is a youth association created on January 25th of 2010. This organization was born from the will of young people of Montijo, conscious of the need to work for the local community. These association members’ are youngsters that want to work with and for other youngsters, and want to represent the vision that today we should have more work focused on youth and solidarity work. The main objective of Omnis Factum, in general, goes through the formation, awareness and inclusion of young people, developing citizenship concept based in the civic and active participation in society, as well through the promotion of intercultural dialogue and socio-cultural activities. Our target group are youngsters who are motivated to make a difference in society. We have developed several projects: Action 1.1, Youth Exchange, “Your Green Europe” about environment protection and 4.3, Training course "When Social Meet Rights", about young people's involvement in social causes; KA1 project "From Zero to Hero" in November of 2019 that mixed Zumba activities to fight the addiction of drugs, and two projects of European Voluntary Service. In 2021, we started the project “B.A.M- Brigada Ambiental do Montijo”, that aims to preserve and raise environmental awareness, and in 2022 we started the Solidarity Project “Escola da Interculturalidade Global" which focuses on the integration of migrant communities in the city of Montijo.

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).
