Summary:
During 6 days, "Volunteer for the World" will be a European seminar which will serve as a transnational platform for discussion of the role that European youth has as potential and effective volunteers, around the Europe, and in the rest of the world.
Through theoretical and practical activities, designed with the support of participative methods emanated from non-formal education, this event seeks to:
- provide a space to share visions about the work and the necessities of volunteers in the hosting countries and organizations (both in Europe as well as in the rest of the World - namely in Africa, Asia and Latin America);
- explore the physical, mental and social challenges that European youth undertakes when they experience the European Voluntary Service;
- acknowledge codes of good practices for the voluntary sector at European Level.
