🏢 About the local organisation

VšĮ DUKU specializuojasi socialinių paslaugų teikime Vilniaus Pilaitės mikrorajone. Čia su atskirties situacijose esančiais vaikais, jaunuoliais ir jų šeimomis dirbame nuo 2015 metų. Pagrindinės mūsų veikos kryptys: - Vaikų ir paauglių dienos centras ir popamokinės neformalaus ugdymo veikos, - Gatvės darbas su jaunimu, - Mobilus darbas, bei išvykos ir stovyklos, - Materialinė parama sunkumus patiriančioms šeimoms, - Jaunimo mainai, - 2021 metais Pilaitėje viename iš kiemų įsipareigojame atidaryti "Jaunimo dėžę" (konteinerį/vagonėlį ar namuką), atvirą erdvę, kur tikslinė grupė galėtų saugiai rinktis ir gauti specialistų palydėjimą. Tai bendruomeninės iniciatyvos ESC projektas, koordinuojamas DUKU. Šalia to, vykdome Vystomojo bendradarbiavimo tikslais (skurdo mažinimu ir pagalbos besivystančioms šalims) grįstas veiklas - edukacijas Lietuvos mokyklose bei skiriame finansinę paramą majų merginų ir moterų vadybos mokyklai Gvatemaloje.

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).
