We believe that the cultural background, the different perspectives and ways of working, which an European Volunter could provide, would be very interesting for the different target groups: senior citizens, adults, teenagers and children and could inmensly enrich the work of the association.

We are looking for young people with abilities in communication, social skills and are enthusiastic and creative. They should have a lot of proper initiative and values and ideals coresponding to European solidarity and identity.
In addition to that, we try to host volunteers from different countries in order to guarantee the intercultural exchange.

Finally we consider espacially the work of the sending organisation because we think that it is of great significance.
