Study Visits in Czech Organisations Involved in Volunteering

The European Solidarity Corps programme aims to inspire the involved organisations to share their experiences and tools across borders. What can support the organisations on their journey is meeting their peers and experiencing good practices. 

This Study visit will provide a possibility for participants to meet, explore and discuss practices and experiences in order to get inspired and network. 

The participants will have the opportunity to visit 3 local organisations which are active in hosting volunteers.  They will be provided with a space to discuss and compare different practices implementing the programme and youthwork in general.  

The event can serve as a space for creating new ideas and planning future partnerships. 

The programme will take place between 23. and 25. April. The expected arrival of participants is 22. April, we will depart together from Prague to Brno. We will leave Brno together on 26. April and travel back to Prague. 

The activity will involve outdoor activites.
