Participant profile

READ CAREFULLY and THEN APPLY: The sending organisation is crucial and is criteria We’re looking for a young, motivated volunteer who enjoys working with young people aged 11–20. You should have some hobbies or interests you actively practice — whether it’s crafting, sports, cooking, leading workshops, or anything else creative or hands-on. For example: don’t just like football — play it! Don’t just like crafting — show us what you make! It’s not about being a professional; it’s about passion and sharing it. Feel free to send us pictures or examples of what you like to do! You should be able to swim and ride a bike, as these are everyday activities here in Austria, and we often go swimming with the youth. We’d love for you to bring a hobby or skill you can share and teach — anything from decorating, baking, coding, photography, dance, music, outdoor games, or something unique we haven’t thought of yet! Be curious, creative, and able to inspire young people to join and enjoy what you do. YOU HAVE TO HAVE A SENDING ORGANISATION which can send you abroad - a single application of a young person will not be taken into account.
