Volunteering
INFORMATION ON EUROPEAN VOLUNTEERING
Things you should know about European volunteering:
The European Voluntary Service (from now on EVS) is intended for young people between 18 and 30 years old residing in the European Union.
- It is framed within the Youth in Action program.
- This program is funded by the European Commission.
- 90% of the travel expenses will be reimbursed and the total costs of accommodation, meals, local transportation, medical insurance, language course and pocket money for international volunteers will be covered.
- Duration: between 2 and 12 months.
Steps to follow to become a European volunteer:
1) Information. The first step is the search for information to know and understand what the European Voluntary Service consists of, the process begins with the search for a nearby sending organization, which will provide the necessary information about the program. In addition, it will provide support and support during the rest of the European volunteering process. Some EVS projects already come with an assigned sending organization.
2) Choice of the project. The next step is to find a project that meets the needs and concerns of the future European volunteer. Unfortunately, the official database does not report which organizations are looking for European volunteers at this time or for the next few months. This information can be found in the Youth Networks database. In this database, the entities that are sending, receiving or coordinating are indicated.
3) Application. When the candidate finds a suitable European volunteering project for him, he must request it via e-mail, sending CV and motivation letter that the destination organization will submit to a selection process. If it is necessary to send other documents, it will be specified in the project.
Normally it takes between 2 weeks and 2 months for this procedure, depending on the time available and the projects contacted.
4) Approval of financing. Once the volunteer is chosen, the host or coordinating organization must submit the project application to the respective National Agency, in order for it to be approved. The deadlines to which you must adjust are the following:
PROJECT START DATE DEADLINE FOR APPLICATION
From May 1 to October 31 February 1
From August 1 to January 31 May 1
From January 1 to June 30 October 1
Usually it takes between 8 and 10 weeks from the date on which the financing for EVS projects is requested until we know if it has been approved or not.
5) Departure. If the project is approved, the European volunteer can definitely prepare to start their stay. It only remains to sign the necessary documents and prepare the trip.
Last minute projects
To become a European volunteer there is the possibility of benefiting from places that other volunteers have resigned. These projects are announced in a very short period of time. In this case, once the volunteer is selected, he can directly start preparing the trip, since we are talking about projects previously approved by the corresponding national agency.
