🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers are hosted in the village of the hosting organization, sharing a rented house. The house will be completely furnished and equipped, allowing each participant to have her/his own room and a shared kitchen and bathroom. The house is located inside the village, in walking distance to grocery, bakery, cafes, restaurants and bank. Hosting organization provides bikes for local transportation in the village and surroundings. Volunteers get a monthly fee for food and prepare their own meals.

🎒 Leisure activities

Each hosting organization offers task-oriented support and training. Volunteers participate in UBUNTU training every 2 months - the gathering of all 10 volunteers placed in Odemira Municipality, to reflect about learning and to develop skills according to the needs of the specific volunteers. Volunteers must participate in ESC Training Cycle, organized by the Portuguese National Agency.

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).
