About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The main idea for volunteers in small, beautiful, mountain town in Lesser Poland called Rabka-Zdrój is to contribute to the raise of youth opportunities here in town. Volunteers will be a driving force to work with young people in age of 13-26 living, learning, working in Rabka-Zdrój on developing their own initiatives, youth projects, cultural events, skills development activities. Volunteers (working in the group of 3 people) will manage youth center, organize language animations, participate in local youth festivals and help Europe4Youth in international mobilities held in Rabka-Zdrój, in Training and Education Center that we run. Integration is also very important at this point. What will you learn? How to organise youth work in small town, run non formal education activities, organise youth exchanges and festivals, how to apply quality in youth work and work on topics like youth policy development, empowerment etc.

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).
