A positive attitude, openness to learning and a willingness to step out of one’s comfort zone are essential. We value people who are eager to grow personally while contributing to the community. Our main activities require sensitivity, responsibility and the ability to adapt to different situations, as you will be working with people facing various life challenges and/or special needs, including elderly individuals and children.

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).
