About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Activities include: Helping local residents The activities will focus on locals with fewer opportunities and support locals with good ideas that contribute to green jobs and sustainable development of the region. Assistance to local organizations Local organizations have great ideas, dedicated work and a good understanding of the needs of the places in which they operate. Unfortunately they are often hampered by a lack of resources and staff, so volunteers will come to their aid. We will participate in actions of the Red Cross, Mountaineering organisation, Social Welfare Center, animal shelters, local tourist associations. Care for the regional heritage In cooperation with local communities, volunteers will carry out actions to preserve the natural and cultural heritage. Education As part of the educational activities, volunteers will prepare and conduct training workshops for other volunteers at the Volunteer Center (afternoon workshops) and prepare lectures for locals.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteer will get 3 vegetarian meals per day and 20 eur extra per month for the food of his/her choice. Volunteer will stay in a shared room with other volunteers in a volunteer center. Travel costs will be covered by the program.

🎒 Leisure activities

On-arrival and midterm training are obligatory to take part.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We seek participants passionate about community development, innovation, and sustainable growth for helping local residents.

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).
