About the project

ESC: Network for Children's Rights

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The purpose of NCR's educational programmes is to safeguard the rights and interests of children. The project intends to promote the concepts of solidarity, cooperation, coexistence, equality, networking, volunteering, team effort and socialization. The project offers various activities for children between the ages of 6-12 years. The activities are an open space for all children of the neighborhood, regardless of ethnic origin, race, gender, religion or spoken language, who want to participate in non-formal education like language lessons, and creative activities organized and implemented by professional staff and volunteers. On a daily base, there are about 25 boys and girls attending these activities. There are also a Youth Center, a safe space addressed to the age group 13-21, where the participants can come together, socialize and attend daily activitities. !!

🏠 Accommodation on site

All locations within the work of the project have good accessibility to public transportation, as they are very close to a metro station and bus stops. The volunteers will get introduced to the use of the public transport for reaching the working locations. A proper flat will be rented for the volunteers in a safe area of Athens. The volunteer coordinator together with the mentor will be responsible to arrange the participants' travel, book the tickets, organize the accommodation, the insurances and set up for the safety and protection of the participants.

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteers will write reports about every activity and there will be weekly meetings and group reflection on their work. Apart from the weekly meetings which help the volunteers to integrate in the local hosting community, there is dedicated time for workshops and visits to other organizations around Athens. In addition, we spend time together during their free time by realizing guided tours and sightseeing in and around Athens, thus bringing volunteers in contact with the culture of the hostcounrtry. This to introduce volunteers to the current political and social situation in Athens.

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).
