Name
of the project: EVS MID
Date:
5.10.2017 – 11.10.2017
Country/City:
Spain, Malaga
What was the main topic of the event?
Maik Mases: The topic of the training course was
the European Voluntary Service and more specifically, every practical aspect
that must be considered when hosting / coordinating / sending a volunteer.
What was the biggest learning moments
on the event for you?
Maik Mases: The biggest learning moment was
definitely learning from others’ experiences regarding EVS. In addition to the
trainers, we had many participants who had been involved in EVS projects for
quite some time, so it was very useful and interesting to hear different
stories about conflicts, accommodation conditions, activities and initiatives
created by the volunteers in the hosting organization etc. It was also nice to
meet current EVS volunteers in Spain and see how they felt about their ongoing
experience as a volunteer.
Do you have any plans to continue active
in the field? If yes, what?
Maik Mases: I will start hosting an EVS volunteer
in my organsiation starting next January and I will be the tutor. I’m really
looking forward to this challenge which I hope adds some excitement and
different perspectives to our everyday work.
Would you recommend it to your
friends? I yes, why? If not, why not?
Maik Mases: I’d recommend the Erasmus Plus youth
mobility projects to all young people because the for me personally, I think
they enable you to engage in intercultural learning which is always eye-opening
and fun as well. It’s something I wish I could do even more in my everyday
life.
