💼 What the programme involves
Opportunities Appear has a strong educational aspect that focuses on an important objective of the European Union: fostering solidarity and tolerance among young people and promoting social cohesion in the EU.
Goals of the project:
· to improve the personal, educational, social skills, cultural and professional development of the ESC volunteers and the young people of Cyprus
· to enhance the employability of the volunteers and their transition into the labour market;
· to spread the spirit and values of volunteering;
· to cultivate European consciousness in young citizens;
· to promote social inclusion, equal opportunities and solidarity by combating discrimination on the grounds of race, sex, ethnicity, culture and religion, as all our activities will also include youth with fewer opportunities who live in the area;
