Like all on-line guides we need to start from somewhere. This is an EVS guide but EVS is only one child of the family. Which family? But the Youth in Action family of course! Did you know that EVS is only one of the actions of the EC Youth in Action Programme?
The YOUTH IN ACTION PROGRAMME (successor of the Youth Programme) is a programme for everyone, a programme that encourages the involvement of young people aged between 13 and 30 no matter what the background of the young person is. It is the result of a large discussion with the different stakeholders in the youth field and the response to the evolutions within the youth sector at European level. It aims to inspire a sense of European citizenship among the youth of Europe and to involve them in constructing the future of the Community, our Community! Its objectives are to: Promote young people’s active citizenship in general and their European citizenship in particular Develop solidarity and promote tolerance among young people, in particular in order to foster social cohesion in the European Union Foster mutual understanding between young people in different countries Contribute to developing the quality of support systems for youth activities and the capabilities of civil society organisations in the youth field Promote European cooperation in the youth field In order to achieve its objectives 5 different operational actions are introduced with some of them including sub-action. Who can be involved? Most types of project co-financed by the Youth in Action Programme require a partnership to be established between two or more partners. A distinction is made between Programme Countries and Partner Countries: Programme Countries: 27 EU Member States Participating countries of the EFTA members of the EEA: Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway Candidate countries for accession to the EU: Turkey Neighbouring Partner Countries (under Actions 2, 3.1 and 5.1) South East Europe: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), Montenegro, Serbia Eastern Europe and Caucasus: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, Russian Federation, Ukraine. Mediterranean Partner Countries: Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestinian Authority of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, Syria, Tunisia. Other Partner Countries of the World So yes! All this for you(th)!!!! A diversity of actions supporting youth work, youth organisations and the young people of Europe and as you have just witnessed…not only! We said! EVS might only be the beginning! There will be time for you to meet the rest of the….family!
