Sofia, Bulgaria
Description
!!! Read Zemlya infopack & apply here: http://tiny.cc/3lk0101 This is an opportunity to learn by doing, share experiences, and co-create solutions that can inspire change beyond the project itself. You will collaborate with peers from different countries to explore practical ways of building more inclusive communities. Through workshops, teamwork, and community engagement, volunteers will contribute to initiatives focused on diversity, EU values, and social inclusion for displaced Ukrainian youth. Volunteers will work together to develop ideas, support community activities, and help document practices that will later become part of the Library of Sustainable Inclusion, a resource designed to help organizations across Europe strengthen inclusion efforts. If you are curious, open to learning, and motivated to make a positive impact, this experience invites you to be part of something meaningful.
