The main goal-mission is to improve the quality of life of the youth population by responding to their needs and demands regarding to information, culture, participation, non formal education, healthy habits, leisure and integration in the environment.

All our services and activities are conducted within the methodological approach of Non Formal Education, promoting the active participation of the young people in the learning process and promoting creativity, personal autonomy and favoring skills development to improve their integration in the environment

Tarefas: Volunteers represent an added value to tasks carried out by youth workers in the Youth Center, who will support them.

The EVS project consists of two parts, activities performed by both volunteers together and specific activities for each volunteer. Specific activities are connected to youth information at the Office for International Programmes and technology at TEC, from which volunteer has to choose one according to their personal interests and skills. Activities in which the volunteers will participate are the following: Activities performed together:
 English Language Workshops. The volunteers will prepare, perform and cheer up this activity, with different groups of young people from 12 to 30 years old. This will be one of the most important tasks of the volunteers. They will bring their own styles and energy to liven up discussions and inspire participants to learn English. Depending on the origin of the volunteers and their language proficiency, we can organize workshops in other languages.
 Creation of promotional materials for the activities (posters, leaflets, presentations, etc)
