🇹🇷 ESC Volunteering in Türkiye 🎨 Step by Step 🌟 Art, Sports and Youth Work, Tokat 🇹🇷
Are you a creative, dynamic, and open-minded young person looking for an ESC volunteering experience in Türkiye? Tokat Provincial Directorate of Youth and Sports is welcoming international volunteers to join their Step by Step project — working with local youth in areas such as art, sports, and informatics, according to each volunteer’s own competences and interests. Volunteers also participate in artistic activities to discover Turkish culture firsthand. Accommodation in the volunteer house is fully provided. No application deadline — apply as soon as possible.
🇹🇷 Did You Know? Tokat is one of Anatolia’s most historically layered cities — it was an important centre of the Silk Road trade routes and served as a key hub during the Ottoman Empire. The city is famous for its distinctive hand-painted fabric art known as Tokat yazması (printed cloth), its well-preserved Ottoman architecture, and a cuisine that is considered one of the richest in the Black Sea region of Türkiye. Volunteering here means living in a city with thousands of years of continuous civilisation beneath your feet.
