The European Solidarity Corps initiative provides opportunities that are accessible for all. However, some people cannot benefit equally from these opportunities because they face various barriers. Inclusion of people facing access barriers or having fewer opportunities is a key objective of European Solidarity Corps Program, aiming at establishing a dedicated framework for inclusion measures. In the process of collecting and selecting your application for ESC Program, WeWorld includes Inclusion and Diversity criteria in its selection process.
