About the project

ESC: Volontariato in un biotopo austriaco

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The hosting organization is a creative biotope in Sankt Pölten, the capital of Lower Austria. This cultural center is blending art and ecology within a captivating 5-hectare urban oasis of Sonnenpark. This volunteering offers you a healthy and varied work environment, with lots of possibilities to get involved and grow. You'll also have the chance to meet other volunteers, as twice a year the coordinating organization organizes a meeting between all its volunteers, so that they can get to know each other and discuss a range of subjects including education, solidarity and the environment.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be accommodated in a house or flat, in a room which can be single or double. The accommodation is close to the Sonnenpark. As a volunteer you receive € 180 as pocket money and € 300 as food allowance per month. You will also receive a subsidy for public transport and the travel from Italy to Austria and back is fully reimbursed. Also an insurance coverage is provided, protecting you from any risk.

🎒 Leisure activities

You will receive a pre-departure training in Italy and will as well attend in Austria the on-arrival and mid-term trainings organized by the Austrian National Agency. You will work outside in the nature, and help the hosting organization to save this very unique place for future generations. You'll also be able to take German language courses to develop your language skills.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Are you aged between 18 and 30, interested in the environment and nature, and looking to spend between 10 and 12 months in Austria? If you are open minded, would like to create positive impact on climate, and passionate to work outside in the nature, the hosting organization is happy to welcome you in its community. Priority will be given to those available for the entire period of the project.
Deadline: Application deadline: 28/01/2024

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).
