📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Venti di Scambio is an association of social promotion founded in 2009 thanks to a call from the Puglia Region "Principi attivi". The objectives are: - promote active citizenship of young people; - promote solidarity, tolerance and understanding between different cultures; - create a network both at a local level (schools, associations, administrations) and at an international level; - give young people the opportunity to have a space where they can develop new skills and participate more in community life; - create an increasingly large number of young people interested in European issues; - raise young people's awareness of respect for the environment; - increase youth employment and consequently local development and progress. We have 1 more spot free and we are searching for a creative person who is ready to get out of comfort zone, developing some "crazy" art, manual but also online stuff with us! https://mtv2019.wordpress.com/projects/venti-di-scambio-conversano/

🏠 Accommodation on site

The two volunteers hosted in the same moment will live in the city of Conversano. The space is shared by the 2 person. The flat is near to the hosting organization. The apartment is self-managed by the persons who life inside (cleaning, shopping, cooking) and everyone needs to follow basic rule. No party, no guests, personal care of the hosting space.

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).
