Volunteers might also be helping in our network working with young people: workshops for unemployed or art groups in workers academy, different associations, school visits etc. volunteers will be working 6-8 hours a day, 30-38 hours per week and have two (consecutive if possible) days off per week.

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).
