Level Up & Make a Difference
Cross Culture International Foundation Cyprus
Paphos, Cyprus
Description
CCIF Cyprus invites five young people to join a long-term European Solidarity Corps volunteering experience in Paphos, Cyprus. The activity will prioritise young people with fewer opportunities, including NEETs, young people from low-income or migrant backgrounds.
Through intercultural activities, community events and awareness campaigns, volunteers will promote solidarity, equality, inclusion, tolerance and respect for diversity. The project will empower young people to challenge stereotypes, strengthen their sense of European belonging and become active promoters of EU values within their communities.
