Noored Ühiskonna Heaks (NYH) is promoting calls for participants for European Solidarity Corps (ESC) long-term volunteering project which means supporting local organizations with different activities in Athens, Greece.

About the Project

The project offered by Hellenic Youth Participation (HYP) provides a dynamic opportunity for young individuals to actively engage in fostering solidarity, cultural understanding, and non-formal education in Athens, Greece. The initiative is designed to promote European values through activities such as workshops, clean-ups, debates, and social campaigns that raise awareness of social issues like human rights, active citizenship, and cultural diversity. Volunteers will also support the organization’s projects, create digital content for social media, and collaborate with local NGOs to assist vulnerable communities, including refugees.

Participants will gain invaluable personal and professional development, improving skills like teamwork, communication, adaptability, and digital proficiency while experiencing life in a multicultural capital city. The project includes two training sessions organized by the Greek National Agency, along with additional workshops on team building, emotional intelligence, and crisis management.

Volunteers will benefit from comprehensive support, including accommodation in a shared flat, monthly pocket money, food allowances, transportation costs, Greek language lessons, and local mentorship to facilitate their integration. HYP’s commitment to youth activism and experiential learning ensures that participants leave with meaningful experiences, enhanced skills, and a deepened understanding of solidarity and intercultural collaboration.
