Alojamiento, manutención y transporte
Volunteers will reside in an apartment and have to shear with other volunteers. A project will cover costs such as accommodation, food, travel, and living expenses for the volunteers. Volunteers will be insured through Henner. Each month, they will receive a stipend for pocket money and food to purchase necessary items.
Formación durante la actividad
Before coming volunteers will have the pre-departure session in this country and when they come to Lithuania, they will have an on-arrival and mid-term training. Training will be about volunteering experience and the Youthpass certificate. In a Hosting organization, volunteers can learn about Lithuanian culture and traditions, know how to organize and implement activities for kids and young people, have a clearer idea of what they want to do in the future, and volunteer in different activities.
