📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The project is in collaboration with the Association “I Ragazzi di San Lorenzo Bellizzi (IRSLB) an association that takes its name from the same country as the fundamental objectives are the safeguarding of the old and the development of the new of the territory. San Lorenzo is a small city located within the Pollino Park, where a large part of the economy depends on pensions, small businesses, restaurants and seasonal summer tourist jobs.

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).
