About the Host Organization

Since 2008, FCASEC has been actively involved in European Voluntary Service, hosting 62 volunteers from Europe, South America, Africa, Georgia, Azerbaijan. During this time FCASEC facilitated the participation of eight young Romanians in EVS in Spain, Italy, Germany, Portugal and Turkey.
Our motivation to implement this project is based on our desire to achieve a cross-border network of youth organisations in Europe, South America, Asia and Africa to enhance the exchange of information and best practices in youth activities, in general, and volunteering activities, in particular. We wish to achieve a permanent transfer of ideas and information about the European Voluntary Service and to increase the active participation of youth in the community.

The volunteer will work 35 hours per week and will have 2 free days, it will be compensated with other two consecutive days during the week, agreed on mutually between the volunteer and the association. The volunteer will also be entitled to two days off per month, food allowance, monthly subsidy (pocket money), free accommodation and transport from and to the residence/volunteer service place will be provided.

The participants will have CIGNA insurance which covers all their needs for the duration of their project.

Expected learning outcomes
The Project aims to put together the youth organizations which work on human rights, equality, tolerance and non discrimination between the units of community. New forms of discrimination have arisen, in association with certain scientific developments and the process of globalization. As a result of these new threats and the outbreak of violence we would like to put an emphasis on this issue and work with the disadvantaged groups; people with disabilities, immigrants, women, children and youngsters.
