📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

You'll join a team of 20 international volunteers for a project aimed to implement a wide range of activities. Part of them is realized in a city, and part in close rural villages. Your tasks span from non-formal educational workshops for kids and youngsters to informational campaigns, from public events to skills development internal trainings, from free time inspirational workshops for adults to digital activities. In a general sense, you will learn to be a complete youth worker, and to master the non-formal education methods. The main idea of the project is to promote volunteering as a viable solution to the challenges facing the local community, with the aim to build a more inclusive society. Foreign young volunteers act as an active model of involvement for local children, youngsters and adults, ultimately inspiring the communities to adopt a responsible and supportive behavior based on solidarity, to generate positive and sustainable changes in society for a general well being.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You’ll receive a pocket money of around 90 euros per month, and a food allowance of around 150 euros per month. You and your colleagues will all be accomodated in a very nice building nicknamed “The castle”, in double rooms with private bathroom, while kitchen, canteen and a nice courtyard are in common. The travel from Italy to Romania and back will be completely reimbursed. You won't need of local trasports arrangements, since everything is quite close, and in case of necessity the coordinating organization manages a proper transport solution. An insurance company covers you from any risk.

🎒 Leisure activities

You will attend a pre-departure training before leaving Italy, a so-called “on arrival training” a few weeks after your advent in Romania and a “mid-term training” at the end of your volunteering. Lessons of Romanian language will also be given on a regular basis. You'll be informally trained on a lot of arguments, through planning sessions, topic trainings, skills development sessions, constructive feedback and evaluations. You'll be supported from prepared mentor, both personally and on the tasks. The mentorship sessions will be held monthly, both individually and also in the big group.

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).
