EU and Latin America EVS project on participation of young people
EVS project in EU (Estonia, Italy, Lithuania, Spain) and Latin America (Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador)
16 long-term volunteer placements from August 2007 to May 2008
The main project aims were to enhance young people’s participation, leadership skills and their engagement in civil society by involving them in local development activities run with and for young people, targeting particularly young people in rural areas or from vulnerable groups. The young volunteers engaged in a variety of local hosting projects, ranging from youth clubs and youth initiated networks to community development and social work projects.
