Funded Volunteering
What possibilities are there for funded volunteering in Europe?
Please note that UK participation in volunteering projects that are funded by the European Union MFF (Multi-annual Financial Framework) has been affected by the withdrawal of the UK from the EU. As a general rule, participants in Erasmus+ projects must be established in an EU Member State or a third country associated to the Programme.
There may however be possibilities for participation volunteering projects funded by the Council of Europe (of which the UK is still a member), such as The European Youth Foundation
There is currently an opportunity for participation in an in-person 7-day seminar on anti-militarism in April 2023 in Rome, Italy. The subject is “No War Anywhere! Utopias Against War” and the intended age-range is 18 to 30. It is hoped that 80% of participants will be in this age group, although around 20% might be in an older age-range. The deadline for applications is 20th February 2023 and full details, including a link to the online application form, are here https://ivsgb.org/funded-volunteering-in-europe/call-for-participants_utopias-against-war/
