• Provide basic tools for conflict Resolution in the European Solidarity Corps

We are looking for participants who:

• Are involved in the Volunteering Actions of the European Solidarity Corps Programme.
• Are connected to organisations/institutions holding a Quality Label for Volunteering (or accreditation for Volunteering in Erasmus+).
• Create learning opportunities within the organisation and for volunteers.
• Know the basic principles and practicalities of the European Solidarity Corps Programme.

Online preparation

As part of the course, there's an initial online meeting you'll need to attend before the residential training in Luxemburg. This phase has two main goals:

1) To introduce essential information that everyone should know.

2) To create a sense of community among participants.

During this phase, you'll also begin your first assignments, where you'll assess your organization, local community, and personal needs.

The online meeting is scheduled for 10.02.2025 at 16:00 CET (duration 1 hour)
