About the project
ESC: “Learning is FUN” | ESC Volunteering Opportunity in Faenza, Italy
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
We are a non-profit organization based in Italy working with European Mobility projects and ESC projects. We are full of creativity and always new ideas.
Stating that we are all equal in creativity, SE.M.I. aims to provide youngsters with the possibility to live in a rich intercultural and creative environment where to exchange opinions and develop new ideas.
In order to reach these goals the association organizes local and international, cultural and intercultural activities in the area of Faenza, with a focus on creativity, intercultural dialogue, self-development and communication.
We believe that creativity can be applied to every aspect of life and that it can channel diversity into human brotherhood by establishing a common ground through different people and cultures. Similarly, language can be a powerful mean to positive communication instead of a barrier.
Our target groups are young people between 14 and 30 years old, and youth workers of any age. We work with high schools, we cooperate with other associations on the territory in order to promote youth mobility opportunities among young people in the area of Faenza (Ravenna).
Our regular activities are school trips (especially abroad) organized for local highschools; international volunteering; international internships; summer camps; school workshops; training for youth workers.

All the volunteers will receive task specific training, weekly communication workshops and they will be enrolled in On Arrival and Mid Term Evaluation training. The volunteers will be furnished with the access to Language learning platform.
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).
