PRESENTATION OF INCLUSION FOR ALL:
This project will allow us to send a combination of short term individual and small group EVS volunteers to Everything’s Possible partners in Turkey, Greece and Italy. There they will support the hosting organisations in the fields of Environment and education through sports and outdoor activities. The volunteers will come from varying backgrounds of lesser opportunities, and through the project, will have the chance to explore other cultures, gain new skills in the fields they want to build upon while gaining a real sense of euopean citizenship and intercultural understanding. As suggested by the name of this project, we aim to give the young people we are working with a better chance of inclusion in society, empowering them with new skills and confidence so they have a solid and valuable foundation from which to progress.
