📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

CODEC stays for Association for European Cooperation, Development and Communication. Mission of our organization is to promote European policies and values that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world. At CODEC, you will meet design thinkers, project managers, communicators, education specialists, and technology and social media experts that can respond to your organisation's needs and understand the social challenges you wish to address. Participation forms the core of our methodology and is central to our creativity. Our projects and campaigns engage people of all ages. We take an idea, share it among protagonists and empower them to get actively involved. Our activities are based on the following principle: on entrusting people to define the problem of significance to them, acquire knowledge about it, envision possible solutions and then take action to address the problem and bring about change. Our core team consists of specialised and versatile staff, of different nationalities. Each day, they bring their specific expertise, diverse cultural insights, and joint commitment to social change - to everything we do. Our global network of partners and collaborators shares our participatory methodology, and enables us to develop projects anywhere in the world.

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).
What do we provide ?
  • Training before and after the project
  • Health insurance during your project
  • round-trip travel reimbursement
  • accommodation and food
  • pocket money
  • language course
  • Return Week-end
  • Youth Pass and SVI international Volunteer passport
