This is a group EVS project that includes 4 promoters from programme countries and a neighbouring partner country: 3 sending organisations from Germany, Macedonia and Spain, each sending one volunteer to a host organisation in Italy, that also acts as the coordinating organisation of the project. The 3 volunteers participate in the activity in Varese, Italy and the project lasts in total 20 months. The project focuses on the theme of volunteering as an expression of active citizenship and aims at enhancing active participation and European awareness of young people and of the local community, enhancing intercultural learning and developing the sense of solidarity and tolerance of young people. The project is designed, implemented and evaluated with a non-formal and cooperative method that involves all partners as well as the 3 volunteers. It foresees common activities for all volunteers as well as 3 individual "paths" inside the host organisation and collaborations with other local non-profit organisations.
