Description of the project:

The volunteer will work in our office, supporting all our projects and initiatives, providing information to the local community about the EVS and Erasmus+ programs, holding presentations visiting every week the universities and schools in the region.
We are also Eurodesk multiplier, so the future volunteers will have the opportunity to explore the Eurodesk online database and provide information to local youth who are interested.
Also, each week the volunteers will have the chance to organize their own art/eco club, where they could present their nation, language, traditions, customs etc.
Also, if there are interested people in our city, the volunteers can organize a free language course as a social initiative to the local community.

The main job of the EVS volunteers will be to promote European mobility, to share their experiences with young people. They will represent our structure within forums, job fairs. Another main part of their work will be interventions at schools (from primary schools to university). Volunteer’s activities will be adjusted to one’s profiles and fields of interest, thus the project will result with high satisfaction of achieved learning outcomes.
