PROJECT DESCRIPTION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The volunteers will be actively embedded in the multiethnic and stimulating environment of Reggio Emilia by exploiting the activities and the network of contacts of YouNet-RE. This will enable them to approach this context and act as protagonists thus making the most of the unique opportunity of the EVS. This close contact with the local community and the active participation in volunteering, informative and formative activities carried out by YouNet RE will widely enhance the growing possibility for the volunteers. The volunteers will be involved in a European environment and will have the chance to learn about how the European Institutions (European Commission, Council of Europe, ..) and Programs, working with specific reference to the youth policies and opportunities.
In particular, the volunteer will be involved in activities connected with students from abroad, supporting the activities to welcome and host them in local enterprises. The volunteers will be also involved in activities with local young people, especially organizing public language tandems and other initiatives connected with EU topics. They will improve their teamwork abilities by managing time, logistics and organization of the activities together with the other actors involved. Being able to take part in this kind of experience is formative and educational from a personal point of view too. It increases the volunteers’ awareness of their capacities and boosts their self-esteem. These aspects will be highlighted and exploited by the mentor. Volunteers needs to bring their own laptop.
All together, volunteers will develop some common projects (supported by the mentor), for example the VIDEO about VIDA, radio interviews, public language tandems, public events.
All volunteers have the responsibility to contribute to the visibility of the project and of the European Solidarity Corps program.
