🔷 Activity Details
Description
Join KINITRO in Athens for a 60-day European Solidarity Corps experience focused on community engagement, creativity and active citizenship. As part of KINITROnGO Academy, volunteers will help design, organise and facilitate inclusive community activities that bring young people together, encourage participation and strengthen social connection. You will contribute to planning activities and games, preparing events, welcoming participants and promoting KINITRO’s values of inclusion, solidarity and respect. Along the way, you will develop practical skills in project and event management, communication, teamwork, leadership and problem-solving while working in an intercultural environment.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
Accommodation will be arranged by KINITRO in a safe, comfortable and accessible location close to the organisation in Moschato, Athens. Volunteers’ dietary needs, allergies and restrictions will be taken into account. KINITRO will provide practical support and information for local public transport, airport arrival/departure and transportation related to project activities.
Training during the activity
Volunteers will receive an induction to KINITRO, the European Solidarity Corps and their roles, together with training in non-formal education, inclusion, communication, teamwork and event facilitation. They will receive ongoing guidance from the KINITRO team and individual mentor support. Regular reflection will help volunteers identify their learning outcomes and develop skills in project planning, leadership and communication. Learning will be documented through Youthpass/Europass.
Participant profile
We are looking for motivated young people interested in community engagement, youth work, creativity, inclusion and active citizenship.
