“EVS Looking to Future” is a combination of four different activities namely: A1: Group EVS (EVS at Don Bosco Rijswijk (11 April-10 May 2015) in which 7 volunteers with fewer opportunities from 6 countries come to Rijswijk, The Netherlands for a month, A2: Longterm EVS at Don Bosco Rijswijk (3 September 2015 to 2 September 2016), in wchich 2 Long term EVS volunteers come to Rijswijk, The Netherlands, A3: Jobshadowing at Don Bosco Rijswijk and Don Bosco Amsterdam (15 February to 07 Marach 2015) during which four youth workers from three organisations come together to make a jobshadowing at Don Bosco Rijswijk and Don Bosco Amsterdam and A4: Long term EVS in Sweden (1 February 2015 to 31 January 2016) in which one volunteer from the Netherlands go to Falköping in Sweden to do 12 months of EVS. This project aims to give volunteers and youth workers an experience of European Voluntary Service, sharing of beste practices and promoting intercultural learning. The participants will gain knowledge, skills and attitude for life from this project and will get opportunity to work with children (often disadvantaged) and young people. Responsibilities are given to the volunteer, and through daily interaction with other (EVS) volunteers and living together with them, the experience is being shared and learned from. The project will start from the 1st of January 2015. We are sure that this project will achieve a wide spread multiplying effect on other young people, partners and coordinating country which will bring forth a sustainable and long lasting impact! The impact on the partner organisations is also very evident. We see possibilities of stratagic partnerships, new EVS opportunities, Exchanges and a learning experience in youth work. Thus the youth worker/leader/ volunteer who go back to their local organisation(level) can be a very important resource for initiating and promoting the possibilities of organizing trans-national group exchange and can be an instrument in setting up similar concrete work in their own organizations.
