Volu.M.E Training Course

Training Course

6-13 December 2022 | Lefkosia, Cyprus

The Volu.M.E project is focused on enhancing the quality of volunteer management in ESC projects. Focus will be given to the topics of mentoring and inclusion of young volunteers.Based on non formal methodology, we will also explore ETS Key Competences.

When coordinating volunteering projects and while working with young people during the past decade, we have observed a general need to improve the quality of volunteering projects. More specifically, we identified the needs to:

  • recognise the role and importance of youth workers and youth work;
  • promote non-formal education and methodology among adults and young people;
  • train youth workers regarding management of volunteering projects;
  • discuss and better define the meaning of volunteering and the rights and responsibilities of volunteers (specifically within the framework of ESC);
  • discuss and better define the role of coordinating/hosting/sending organisations;
  • develop and exchange (common) good-practices and tools.

“Volunteer Management Enhanced (Volu.M.E)” is a project that includes a Training Course (A1), a Community Support Phase and a follow-up Seminar (A2) focusing on promoting and raising awareness regarding youth work recognition, improving the quality of volunteering management, mentoring and inclusion of young people and promoting non formal methodology and education among young people and adults.
