About the Volunteering Project
This volunteering project is a chance for young people to step out of their comfort zones, work together, and make a real difference in local communities. By joining, volunteers will take part in activities that celebrate diversity, encourage inclusion, and support sustainability, while also exploring what it means to be active citizens in today’s world.
Along the way, participants will gain practical skills, fresh perspectives, and experiences that will not only shape their personal and professional growth but also inspire them to bring new ideas back home. The project highlights eco-friendly practices, respect for shared European values, and active involvement in democratic life. At its heart, it’s about empowering young people, building meaningful connections, and creating a positive impact that lasts long after the project ends.
