📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
Volunteer activities will take place mainly in Matera, the city where the Center is located Europe Direct Matera and where the volunteers will stay. Among the activities planned, our Center has started a network project for the Basilicata, called "131 ideas for 131 municipalities", with the aim of stimulating the creation of projects territorial areas that allow the connection of Basilicata to Europe and Europe to Basilicata,
also through funding from the various direct and indirect European Commission programs . For this reason, Europe Direct Matera will be increasingly active throughout the territory regional and, thanks to the presence of EVS volunteers, the organization intends to intensify and branch out collaborations with public bodies, companies and third sector actors of the Province of Matera and of Potenza, with the aim of making known the opportunities put in place by Europe, such as calls, initiatives that, more often than not, are not exploited to the fullest.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Matera is a medium-sized city that has lived until the 1950s a condition of marginalization as well as the rest of the region to which it belongs. After a long process of enhancement that led to the recognition of the Sassi (the ancient part of the city) as

Volunteers will live in a shared flat in the city and will get daily allowance and pocket money. Local transport will be covered by the organization.
