ESC in HOSTEL in management in North Italy

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

No Borders Association is an association of volunteers settled in Milan and born in August 2014 in order to promote opportunities of mobility and inter-cultural learning for youngsters from Milan and its region. We try to involve mainly students from schools and universities and participants with fewer opportunities. As it is a young organisation our experience comes from the experience of youth workers and young volunteers previously involved in intercultural and international activities in other youth organisations. In order to develop our association and our network, we are looking for long-term strategic partnerships. Our main activities are: Youth Exchanges, training courses, promotional events to promote E+ opportunities, Radio No Borders and the local activities in cooperation with local organisations. The aim of the association is to give more and more opportunities to young people with fewer opportunities and migrants thanks to learning opportunities at local level and in the field of international mobility and intercultural learning, helping them to open their mind, develop their skills and competences and foster their participation in society. Our goal consists also in stimulating the personal growth of youngsters and people with fewer opportunities, by raising their sense of citizenship, an active participation inside society and a real awareness about their role as European citizens. The volunteers that decided to create it, did it with the perspective to have new opportunities to develop their own ideas and projects. We try to educate youngsters to a peaceful cohabitation with people coming from different cultures, countries and social conditions, by giving them the opportunity to confront themselves within an inter-cultural environment which stimulates the development of a conscience about the complexity of our society.

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).
