What is the European Solidarity Corps?
The European Solidarity Corps (ESC) is a European Union initiative that empowers young people aged 18 to 30 through volunteer work or work projects within their country or abroad. It is designed to promote solidarity, encourage social participation and facilitate personal growth by providing opportunities to contribute to society, gain experience and develop new skills through diverse activities.
Participants benefit from basic support such as food, accommodation, travel, pocket money, insurance and guidance throughout their participation.
Volunteers have the opportunity to learn and grow by engaging in meaningful projects that encourage teamwork, collaboration, and cultural exchange, enabling them to immerse themselves in diverse communities and work collaboratively. More information about ESC here.

Volunteers must demonstrate an interest in learning and living in the community. Living closely with a community of diverse individuals can be both challenging and rewarding, and we look for people who are open to that experience, and eager to support our shared values and goals.
