It aims at enabling all young people from 18 to 25 years old to make a Citizen Service in order to promote their personal development as well as their integration in society a sresponsible, active, critical and supportive citizens. They can choose 6-month volunteer missions in organizations with solidarity projects. Their time is divided so: 80% mission in their host organization and 20% trainings with the CSN, peer-to-peer exchanges, and times of maturation and orientation. Besides the pedagogical mission, the CSN works for the political recognition of the project and tries to communicate on its societal impacts You will support the pedagogical team of the Citizen Service Network, which accompanies youngsters between 18 and 25 years old who commit themselves for six months to a voluntary mission in Belgium in our Citizen Service programme.

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).
