Resumo: Population: 100,000 inhabitants. It is a town with a dynamic society and economy. Its industrial and business centre occupies a lot of people. Services: the City is one of most outstanding ones in Madrid, with over 1000 civil servants and a large number of social, cultural and sport services for its citizens. Regarding youth policies, is a pioneer in the development of youth programmes and participation ideas.

Imagina promotes and organises training and information activities for youth in the town aged between 14 and 35 years. As part of our policy of providing opportunities of participation in European mobility projects, we have been hosting European volunteers who support our work for several years.

This project includes hosting 4 European volunteers for 9 months (October - June). Volunteers will mainly participate in activities in the Youth House, but also in related institutions in the town. This gives us the opportunity of giving organisations and youth collectives and individuals first hand information and a living model of the virtues of such a training and vital experience as this one.

Thus, volunteers integrate in the daily work of Imagina to collaborate with the promotion, dissemination and organisation of youth activities. They live in shared flats in the town.

Tarefas: Beyond the specific activities the EVS volunteers carry out, detailed below; their presence in our activities are an intercultural and motivating message for the young people of our city. When the local youth is in contact with the international volunteers, they learn that international activities such as the EVS are possible and worth participating in. Thus the participation of international volunteers in local activities has motivated local youth to participate in international activities and as EVS volunteers.

In this EI we are requested to explain the service and learning opportunities we can offer the EVS volunteers. For us, after 13 years hosting volunteers, the matter should be considered in opposite terms: what is the contribution of the volunteers to make this a unique experience to learn and experience personal development? The Youth Area supplies the volunteers with a large range of possibilities of action and contacts with young people and associations. An example is the co-management of projects with local youth associations. In these programmes, the local youth in organisations carry out projects with the technical and financial support of the municipality. This is how the consultant's offices of Nature and European Mobility, the programmes of alternative leisure or a good number of youth clubs are carried out. In them, EVS volunteers can participate together with local youth. Nevertheless, our experience has shown us that only some EVS volunteers have the motivation and the interest to go beyond their duties as volunteers. This limited motivation hinders in fact the learning opportunities and personal development of the international volunteers during their EVS. For that reason, we think that motivation for the project is the most important thing.

Volunteers have in toen, all their needs covered. They participate directly in the Folk's University, in the language course in the programme.
