Volunteering

Updated : 12/2011

Where to start

To go abroad with the European Voluntary Service you need to find a sending organisation. If you don't already know of one, here are some places you can look:

The national agency in your country
Your regional SALTO resource centre for Eastern Europe and the Caucasus, Southeast Europe and the Euro-Mediterranean region only
The database of accredited organisations

Your sending organisation will help you develop your specific project and find a placement that corresponds to your interests and can host you during the time you have available. This might not be easy, but persevere - it will be worth it.

The EVS guide provides detailed information on where to start and how it all works.
