Let's work together – Team Volunteering; Partnership-building Activity and Study visit

In the Let's work together activity participants will learn the possibilities of the European Solidarity Corp program, especially what the Team volunteering activity has to offer and how to set up it. Another important element of the activity is to get to know other organisations, partner up and also we have the chance to visit volunteering organisations in Moldova. During the activity we also get familiar with elements of good and strong partnership and share the understanding why it is important. 
 

In the nutshell, by participating, you get..

• information about how to set up the European Solidarity Corps  Team volunteering project 
• information about quality aspects in a good partnership
• new partners 
• chance to network and exchange good practices
