Resumo: (environment)
The hosting organization is a foundation active in the northeastern part of The Netherlands. Our aim is to bring Europe to rural areas and bring persons from rural areas in contact with Europe through exchanges, trainings and in the future international volunteering projects.

The organization is organising small scale local activities with youngsters, like volunteering in the youth club, organising children and youth activities and coaching & guiding youngsters in their study choices, career choices and assistance in difficulties they might be facing in life such as 'being stuck in life', problems at school, homework counseling, bullying and family issues.

We involve youngsters in the organisation and implementation of our international projects, every year we organise 2 to 3 international youth exchanges in the school holiday period, youngsters arrange all the practical facilities as well as giving assistance in the facilitation of the programme. We aim to have at least one international exchange per year abroad in order to give youngsters a taste of Europe.

Our methods are non-formal learning and learning by doing. It means that people learn spontaneously by participating in activities, being faced with particular situations/issues for which they need to find a solution, as individuals or as a group.

Our aim is to organise (international) projects throughout Europe in order to include disadvantaged youngsters, mainly those from rural areas, this in order to make them more aware of themselves and the world around them.

Our vision is to give people the chance to discover their potential in order to create a better world.

Perfil: Age: 18-30
- Like to take initiative (and if you've been in our projects, you know how much we care about it).
- Are an entrepreneur, don't wait and hope for something to happen.
- Come with alternative solutions for a problem.
- Have not participated in another ESC project before (also not the short one, LIRA is a long term project).
- Are open to cultural differences and even in case of cultural shock, willing to give it another shot.
- Are willing to realise practical work or to learn about it.
- Are willing to cooperate and work with the Dutch community.
- Speak and understand basic English (diploma is not necessary).
- Are aware that you will be living in a Dutch town and village.
- Can be accountable for your actions.
- Are aware that a bicycle will be your mean of transportation even at -20 degrees (tricycle is also an option).
- A driving license could be handy. Not mandatory though.

Tarefas: The activities can be very different. But expect them to be mainly practical, though we also aim on finding a balance between office work and practical work. The working places could be a milking farm, a horse stable, cheese farm, museum, second hand shop, clothing shop, art gallery, petting zoo, crafting office, community work, youth work, and so on. It is normal to feel confused in the beginning, not knowing what to do, which is why we will offer you guidance in choosing a fitting working place/activity.

The program doesn't offer language courses anymore, there is the possibility, however, to have access to their online courses platforms, in which you can also choose to learn different languages. As the organization, we believe that learning even if a little bit of the local language could support you throughout your year in The Netherlands and perhaps even after. Learning the local language (for free), is always an extra bonus, it also helps with breaking cultural barriers and making contact with locals.
