📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

"Volunteering 4 youth Empowerment" is an ESC project which aims to empower 4 young ESC volunteers with skills and competences, which will help them to strengthen their sense of citizenship, responsibility and initiative; improve their media literacy and critical thinking; digital and organizational skills; their career possibilities on labour market, give a chance to gain international experience, develop their tolerance and sense of solidarity and widen their horizons. The main objective of the ESC project is to provide participants with the opportunity to develop youth competencies, knowledge, and practical skills to support disadvantaged youth or young people with fewer opportunities. Volunteers will create activities aimed at the integration and promotion of European values. Between January to July 2025 we will host 4 volunteers, who will gain experience in youth work, non-formal training activities, as well as methods for inclusion and integration.

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).
