Description
This project aims to create a Volunteering Team that can help with the execution of an international event on youth work, youth participation and volunteering that will take place in Sardinia, Italy, in October 2024. The international youth work conference known as "Connessioni" will bring together around 150 young activists, youth leaders and youth workers from different countries in Europe for 5 days to discuss youth policies, develop youth projects, exchange best practices, strategies, ideas, cooperation and more. The volunteers will commit to their duties for 25 days to increase the value and the intercultural aspect of the event, and assist it with the planning, execution, and evaluation of the event. They will also support internal and external communication, logistics, information outreach, participant engagement, and facilitation of targeted activities.
