Start date: Jan 4, 2016, End date: Apr 3, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The volunteers at Turkish Red Crescent Izmir Branch ensure active participation of the youth in community through the activities at local level for youth which they do in accoradance with the principles of Red Crescent. Through these activities based on voluntariness; young people gain self-confidence, develop their initiative and improve their skills on decision-making. Besides these, trainings given by Izmir Branch help young people raise awareness on volunteerism and emphasize the importance of working voluntarily both for their cities and for humanity.Before you start working voluntarily, you first fill up an application form and you put a cross (X) as answers to questions. This project implies that young people putting “X” in the application form make a change starting from themselves to cities they live in, and from the community to humanity.This project implies that this letter “X” as being the start and means of the change makes an ELIXIR effect. So the project is named as “IXIR”. In the project which will be carried out in İzmir for a year, our project team will gather 30 young people from all around Turkey and inform them about volunteerism, youth works, Erasmus+ and European opportunities and also will raise their awareness on disadvantageousness, being a citizen and active citizenship. These 30 participants will have a chance to attend seminars and workshops with ministry representatives and city managers. Also Macedonian Red Cross Skopje Branch at the invitation of Turkish Red Crescent Izmir Branch will present their project related to the topic. After all of these activities, it is desired to raise 30 Youth Workers.In the European Youth Week; seminars, information and evaluation sessions will be held by using non-formal education methods. Then the participants will be asked to disseminate this information when they go back to their cities. After the participants get all these trainings, they will do activities and provide trainings in their cities as YOUTH WORKERS.
