About the project

ESC in Romania

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The activity aims to promote social inclusion and well-being of children belonging to the most vulnerable brackets of the local population, living in Panciu, Romania and neighbouring villages. We work with disadvantaged children 3-16 years old (especially Roma children) at the Daily Center Pinocchio, mostly through non formal education methods.The Daily Centre Pinocchio aims to promote social integration of disadvantaged children through education, care and socialisation measures, in order to prevent or limit situations of exclusion and poverty. The tasks may differ based on the skills and interests of the volunteer: - supporting the local staff, in cooperation with other volunteers, in the organization and realization of daily activities: handicraft, alalphabetization, foreign languages, personal hygiene workshops, recycled materials worksohops, arts, sports etc.; - preparing sport competitions, outings or cultural journeys;

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteers will be lodged at an apartment specifically dedicated to their hosting. (max. 2 people/ room). The apartment is very close to the Center Pinocchio. Volunteers will be provided with weekly food allowance for their grocery shopping.

🎒 Leisure activities

The participant will engage in non formal education activities with the support of our teacher and other staff members. The participant will also be in close contact with out mentor, to ensure that the experience matches his/her expectations.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are searching for young people with a strong interest and in ensuring the rights of the most disadvantaged groups and with a big passion for volunteering. Reliability, critical thinking and availability are some of the qualities we are searching for in a participant, along with a willingness to work in a culturally diverse group and with a desire for self growth and for contributing to other people's growth.

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).
