🇮🇹 ESC Volunteering in Italy 🌍 Intercultural Workcamps and International Youth Mobility 🕊️

Description

This project aims to actively involve volunteers in managing intercultural activities on both national and international levels. Through this experience, volunteers will gain a deeper understanding of voluntary service and intercultural learning within an international context. They will also be exposed to the behind-the-scenes work of preparing, organizing, and evaluating related actions. Volunteers will contribute to the international volunteering and youth mobility sector by supporting workcamp activities and managing non-formal education projects.

More specifically, the project seeks to:

1 Promote intercultural learning and mutual understanding

2 Promote peace and related values

3 Combat all forms of discrimination, including those based on

4 culture, language, religion, country of origin, gender, economic

5 status, or physical characteristics

6 Encourage interaction and exchange among young people from

7 different countries and backgrounds
