Supporting European Universities Games 2026
EUSA INSTITUTE
LJUBLJANA, Slovenia
Description
European University Sports Association (EUSA) and EUSA Institute are inviting interested young people to apply for the next available ESC service term from September 2025 to August 2026. Deadline to apply is February 20, 2025. Being a pan-European organisation, we find it important and stimulating to host volunteers, enabling them and us to have a fresh and international view in our youth work and projects. During the project, several activities will be organised together with the ESC volunteers, focusing on enabling support to sports events organisers (European Universities Championships and European Universities Games), educational events (EUSA Convention and Conference), promotional activities (media and communication), social responsibility programs (volunteering, gender equality, inclusion, dual career), international cooperation (members, partners, events organisers, etc). Most of the work will be carried out from the office in Ljubljana, with some travel opportunities.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
A shared apartment in Ljubljana is offered. Each volunteer has their own room, and shared use of kitchen, bathroom and toilet. Grocery stores, bank, pharmacy, bars, fast food, sporting grounds and a few other facilities; with regular bus service nearby, close to the city center. Offices are located in the Slovenian capital Ljubljana where also other EUSA staff is working, with all the amenities that they need (own desk, laptop, phone). The working obligations of the volunteer encompass 35 hours per week, usually from Monday to Friday. Volunteers get basic monthly allowance for food and costs.
Training during the activity
Trainings are offered directly by the EUSA Institute and supporting organisations, by the national agency Movit, and opportunities through the Erasmus+ projects and other opportunities, encompassing language training, skills development and specific topics-related trainings.
Participant profile
Young people, especially university students aged 18-30, interested in sport or specifically in university sports, with some previous volunteering experiences, motivated and willing to work individually and in a team. We are looking for flexible & open minded people. Within the project, 3 volunteers will be selected. We strive for gender balance and geographic diversity in our selection. The volunteers will share an apartment (having their own room), so they have to be willing to live in mixed-gender environment. Please see https://www.eusa.eu/esc for more information!
