description of organisation

Evropske centrum mladeze Breclav/European Youth Centre Breclav z. s. was founded by young people for young people in 2007. Our team consists of 20 young people aged from 18 to 33, half of them boys, half of them girls. All of us have personal experience with the Erasmus+/YiA Programme and non-formal education (both as participants and leaders of educational projects). Our organisation is based on volunteering principle.
The main aim of our organisation is to increase awareness about European Union and its educational programmes, to support personal development and self-realization of young people through their active participation in these educational programmes, to support intercultural dialogue, international cooperation and active civil society. Our target group are young people not only from Breclav region but also from the whole Czech Republic, mostly high school or university students.
The most important regular activity of our organisation is preparing, sending young people to projects within the frame of the Youth in Action Programme (now Erasmus+: Youth in Action Programme) and European Solidarity Corps and supporting them during the project and after it. Yearly we support approximately about 300 young people's participation in these projects. We also organise our own Erasmus+: Youth projects - roughly one project per year. Continuously, we establish contacts with organisations with similar orientation as ours and further cooperate with them. We also regularly organise interactive presentations or discussions about EU and its educational programmes and time to time implement or participate on free-time and volunteering activities.
We also strongly believe that it is crucial to give as many possibilities to youths who are economically/socially disadvantaged. Therefore, in March 2014 our organisation established a financial fund for socio-economically disadvantaged youths who cannot afford to take part in EU funded educational programmes without financial aid. Through this fund we completely cover all travel costs as well as pocket money for the socio-economically disadvantaged youth that attends a project in which we are partners. You can see more information about this fund here (though it is in Czech language only): https://eycb.eu/financni-pomoc-vyjezdu/
