📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Gürsu Municipality was established in 1930. Our organization works with the public by organizing events on international activities. The main areas of organizational activities are to contribute to human economic and civic growth through lifelong education to highlight the importance of promoting the integration of disadvantaged groups and local citizenship. We would like to cooperate with other European organizations in the exchange of information and good practices on education and professional development to promote sustainable development. We want to encourage cooperation with European countries. Our aim is to gain in-depth knowledge of diversity, to develop collaboration to share good practices and to encourage people's interest in other cultures. Our goals include spending their time with young people and society through sports, arts, workshops, cultural activities, supporting their initiatives, developing social services and facilitating the integration of young and adults into society. Since we are a public institution, we provide services in many different areas. However, we would like to include the European Solidarity Program in our work. With the suitability of the working areas, we have a lot of competence in this field. Especially the services our municipality offers in the field of youth are very high. Our institutional capacities are extremely high. With our institutional capacity, it has the power to prioritize the high-dimensional program.

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).
