💼 What the programme involves

Pääsküla Youth Centre is hosting 1 volunteer from October 2025-august 2026 (11 months). Pääsküla Youth Centre is one of the two youth centres in the Nõmme district of Tallinn. Our primary focus is open youth work, where we provide young people with a safe and engaging space to explore their interests. We also organize workshops, events, school break programs, camps, and educational activities in collaboration with schools. We believe in youth-led activities and work closely with young people to create opportunities that align with their needs and interests. As a volunteer, your main task will be to interact with youngsters daily—talking, playing, and supporting their ideas. You’ll also assist in hobby activities, organize workshops, cultural evenings, and bring your unique perspective to our team.

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).
