The hosting city Matera has been European Capital of Culture 2019 while in 2026 was nominated Mediterranean Capital of Culture and Dialogue. Volunteers leave in Matera city centre, in a shared flat, hosted in double rooms, not far from the working place. The apartment is self- managed and the volunteer needs to share kitchen and bathroom with other international guests. There is no need for local transportation. As the rule of ESC program the volunteer receives €6 per day for pocket money and €200 per month for food money. Money will be sent via bank transfer each month.
