💼 What the programme involves

We are thrilled to invite you to apply for THE STORY OF (he)ART project organized by the association Ocean Znanja! As part of the project, 8 volunteers will have the unique opportunity to organize and lead artistic workshops with children and senior citizens from the local community, promoting the core values of the European Union. By participating in this project, volunteers will not only contribute to the community, but also gain invaluable experiences and skills. They will have the opportunity to: further develop their artistic and educational abilities, enhance their teamwork and leadership skills, build meaningful connections across generations and cultures, and present their country through food and information. This project offers a platform for personal growth, cultural exchange, and a deeper understanding of European values. The project takes place in Novaki (near Vrbovec), Croatia. The project lasts 2 weeks, starting August 8th and ending August 23rd.

It is a tranquil countryside setting, with just one neighboring property nearby. You will receive a daily pocket money allowance of 10€ for the duration of the project. The meals will be provided by the organizers. Travel budget depends on the distance traveled.

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).
What do we provide ?
  • Training before and after the project
  • Health insurance during your project
  • round-trip travel reimbursement
  • accommodation and food
  • pocket money
  • language course
  • Return Week-end
  • Youth Pass and SVI international Volunteer passport
