📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Friends of Europe, is an association founded in 2014, with the main objective of invigorating the youth of Andalusia and to be able to make it participate in European Youth programs. It was born, at the initiative of a group of young people who had participated in projects of the defunct Youth in Action and first projects under the auspices of the Erasmus Plus program, since

After participating in these experiences, they found that the young people in their environment did not know about these opportunities and they wanted to organize themselves to be able to publicize the programs and generate opportunities for others.

According to the Friends of Europe statutes, its objectives and purposes are as follows:

a) Promotion of the different possibilities that regional, national and European programs offer to young people

Andalusian

b) Promote integration and relationships between young people from different countries.

c) Make Andalusian culture known

d) Promote a critical spirit within young Andalusians and Europeans

e) Promote the integration of young Andalusians into the national and international labor market.

f) Stimulate and encourage the participation of young people in all existing spaces for social participation.

g) Promote Human Rights and values ​​that permeate EU and UN policies to improve coexistence.

h) Others

💼 What the programme involves

Hälsa International Togo is a non-profit social and humanitarian organisation working to promote and protect the rights of vulnerable children and girls in Togo. The organisation's main aim is to combat social inequalities among children and young girls in vulnerable situations and to promote their social and family reintegration. It aspires to a world where children and young girls can grow and flourish in an environment conducive to their development and become the actors and agents of change, they wish to see in their lives. The support of the volunteers will allow the local team to be strengthened with quality human resources to implement in-depth research on street- connected children and young girls in street situations in Togo. The results of these actions will not only allow the government of Togo to design a social strategy adapted to this target group but also allow Hälsa International Togo to propose long-term programs and services based on qualitative evidence.

🤝 Meeting point

The Halsa team will pick up each volunteer at the airport. Volunteers are asked to provide their flight information to Halsa in good time so that we can send them a name card and the Halsa logo. If you would like to arrive earlier and explore the country, you may find a prepaid taxi at the airport, or Halsa can assist you. You can also arrive at the Halsa International office no later than noon on the first day. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need assistance.

ℹ️ Additional information

During their stay, we will build the volunteers' capacity on local culture, working methods and basic local language courses. They will also be introduced to the local authorities and the local EU representation in Togo. Quarterly evaluation workshops of their stay will take place. Finally, the project manager will be available to accompany the volunteers on possible culture shocks and community integration.

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).
