📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The host organisation sets up activities for disadvantaged young people between 12 and 18 years old. You'll need to work with social workers and young people to create workshops. The workshops can be about something you enjoy doing as a volunteer (working with dogs, cooking, music, sport, the arts...). The activities take place in a democratic environment where young people have a voice in participation. A new programme is drawn up every week. During the school holidays, the association is closed. However, you can take part in camps (outdoor, overnight) with our young people with overnight stays) with our young people and social workers.

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).
