Voluntlearn, started in 2015, is an Erasmus+ project focusing on capacity building for the youth. The partner organizations involved comes from the following countries:
-
Initiative Développement Citoyen (IDC), France
The partner organisations of VoluntLearn, as the name suggests (Volunt from the Latin verb “will to”), aim to learn from each other and develop a structured network which can work together on the qualitative and effective volunteer projects, following the principles of a European Voluntary Service, but not necessarily funded through the Erasmus+ Programme.
The project aims to promote volunteering both among young people and private enterprises as a means of skills development and social cohesion. It also contributed in the establishment of a developing network between partner organisations from different areas of the world, to reach a common agreement on the methodology behind the implementation of a voluntary activity with young people.
At the same time the main focus is on the collaboration between private and public entities on how to recognise the voluntary work carried out by volunteers and how to achieve more possibilities of project fundings either through private donors, profit or non-profit parallel activities.
