Resumo: The hosting organization is located in the heart of the city. The address of the worldshop is 2, Veikou st., in an ideal position, 3' from Akropolis metro station and 2' from Dionysiou Areopagitou, one of the most busy and touristic pedestrian streets of the city, and 15' on foot from Syntagma Square, the central square of the city. The city is one of the most developed and visited capitals in Europe and growing awareness and interest of Greek society in the developing world and issues of poverty and inequality is observed. Consequently, an alternative popular movement within Greek society is growing that opposes the economic and political exploitation of the developing countries. Such a movement, which opposes certain, unfair aspects of globalization, can be seen as the catalyst for the development of new initiatives, in their majority disinterested in party-politics, however focused on finding ethical alternatives within the existing system. On the whole, they express a cynicism regarding political engagement on a party level and a turn towards the activity and campaigns of NGOs and politics on a global scale.
The concept of volunteering and charities in Greek society is still very very weak. Anyway, we can say that it is growing and becoming more and more popular, especially among the youth. Programmes such as EVS have been increasingly successful in Greece.
Greek society is becoming more aware of the fact that poverty can be more effectively tackled through a sustainable development approach rather than through global philanthropy.

Tarefas: 50% of his/her serivce time will be as part of the team of volunteers helping daily in the activities of the No profit shop and its e-shop. The team will be coordinated by Sevi Papadopoulou, responsible for the worldshop. This work can some time present a routine aspect, but it goes without saying that the worldshop is for each fair trade organization world wide the strongest and most important tool to support small producer and make their life better, achieving the organization's goals. The other 50% of his/her service time will be as support of the association in the web communication, office tasks and organization of periodical activities (Christmast' bazaar, exhibitions, events, cultural festivals, educational activities) coordinated by members of the board of directors and EVS coordinator Fay Orfanidou. In the framework of the educational, raising awareness and promotional activities, a 10% of his/her service time will be used for possible personal projects, which the volunteer will want to implement after discussion with the organisation.
We are very flexilble to proceede with slight changes of the tasks sharing, on the base of the volunteers' skills, but it is clear from the beginning that organization's needs and priorities will constitute the base to build any new form of cooperation on the base of the young volunteer's proposals.
