📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Old Rabka's Charm Festival is a local cultural event organized in a little town of Rabka-Zdrój in the Polish mountains.

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).
