📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

This activity is a Volunteering Team created to support the implementation of a big sporting event that is happening in September, that has been gathering Jiu Jitsu enthusiasts in Sardinia for 8 years, proposing seminars and competitions, and which has become a reference point for sport, tourism and for the promotion of healthy lifestyles and intercultural dialogue through this powerful tool. An event that in addition to promoting sport and the active and healthy lifestyle, carries on a discussion of mutual respect, intercultural dialogue, personal values and global, and a closer look at the cultural sphere of sport. The volunteers will take service for 30 days and will cooperate in the preparation, implementation and evaluation of the event, supporting internal and external communication, logistics, dissemination, engagement of participants and facilitation of dedicated activities, besides its evaluation.

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).
