📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

You in Europe", founded in 2012, aims at solidarity and understanding between societies, especially in Europe. Ιt promotes volunteering as a mean of enhancing social cohesion and equality, a tool for the integration of individuals from vulnerable social groups. In this context it establishes communication networks between populations in European countries. Also, we promote volunteerism through european projects in the field of non-formal learning in cooperation with other organizations with similar aims. Since 2012, we participate as sending and hosting organization in youth exchanges and trainings and as coordinating of the formely European Voluntary Service. We have been involved in more than 220 youth exchanges and trainings, focused on interculturalism and intercultural education. Our target group is mainly young people and social groups who experience exclusion and marginalization. For this reason we use techniques and methods of the non formal learning. The preparation of the volunteers and the communication with them during their project, has given experience to our members to handle various situations.Organization's executives have been trained in SOHO seminars and we employ a former volunteer as the internal mentor. This situation and the experience we have gained since 2012, give us the required know-how for the coordination, supporting and hosting a volunteering project

💼 What the programme involves

By organising this project we aim to gather young people from different countries to carry out different activities that will enchance the town of Nea Moudania, promote environmental values, create opportunities for active participation and leave a positive impact in the local society. From cleaning a protected area of wetlands to organising local events that promote arts, human rights protection, environmental awareness, sports, healthy lifestyle, etc. We expect that this one month of volunteering will offer experiences to the participants, while contributing to the society.

Volunteers will sleep in double and triple bed rooms. All rooms are with air-condition, satellite TV, safe box, hair dryer, fully equipped kitchen, private bathroom, table and chairs on the balcony and sunshade tents. There is free wi-fi in all the rooms and common areas.Each Volunteer will be provided with pocket money (6 EUR per day) and food allowance (6 EUR per day).For this project, the most convenient way to travel to Greece is to fly toThessaloniki Makedonia Airport (SKG). We will arrange volunteers' transportation from the airport to the hotel and back. This is part of the travel cost

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).
