Project

The main theme of the project is: “young people can always be a valuable part of an organization; especially when it comes to new ideas and practices.”

Through this program volunteers will have the chance to be involved with young people from urban and rural areas as well as learning more about our organization and its actions. They are going to be able to offer their knowledge and experience making a difference in our world and at the same time they will improve their personal and professional skills.

It is going to be an educational project clearly aiming at disseminating certain skills and awareness about Youth Work among the members of the Youth Clubs. This project is expected to play an important role in the dissemination of the European values among the youth of Cyprus. The volunteers will support local volunteers who are familiar with the specific local needs, such as youth leaders and young volunteers. Volunteers will gather European documentation and will produce informational material.

They will also support the European Projects & International Relations Coordinator in certain tasks as database update, communication, events, implementation of educational programs, helping youth clubs in partners search, facilitating events, promoting Erasmus+, promoting the EU values, key priorities and opportunities. Given that young people can easily understand complicated messages if the messenger is a young person, the project will be based on the participatory approach of peer-to-peer education.

The volunteers will receive mentoring from the European Projects & International Relations Coordinator of the CYCO. At the end of their service they will receive a certificate and recommendation letter (s).
