Project environment
Outline the project environment for the suggested voluntary activities, including the local community where the project will take place (e.g. geographical, social and economical environment). If the host placement is located in a live-in community, please include the rules and conditions that apply also for the volunteer.
The association is situated in Milan, a big city (about 1,4 million inhabitants) in the north of the country. It lies in the centre of of a plain (Pianura Padana) and it's easy to reach because it's well-connected with railways, motorways and airports. Milan is the most important city of Lombardia, one of the four engines of Europe. In fact is an economic well-developed city and represents the financial heart of Italy. The average economic level of population is high, even if the suburbs are worse because of unemployment, crime, immigration, etc. On the historical part is full of churches, monuments and museums in the historical centre, which has been place of study and work for Leonardo Da Vinci and other Italian artists.
The organisation run an office in Turin as well, a city smaller than Milan (about 900.000 inhabitants) in the north-west of the country, one hour by car from the French border. Post-industrial, easy-to-reach and well connected with the railway system, Turin is a rich and well developed city surrounded by hills and lies along river Po, the biggest Italian river. In the city are living strong communities of Romanians and North-African people. The social composition of the city reflects the history of the main FIAT car factory. This characterised the city as an area of migration during the period after the second world war during the rise and boom period of the FIAT factory. However, with the decline of FIAT began a period of economic and social decline for the whole city, with many abandoned factories.
The main venue of the association consists in one office placed in a popular area of the city, served by the underground metro service, and for this reason easy to reach; daily (Mon-Fri) from 2 to 5 people work there with flexible timetables, that go from 9 am to 7 pm.
Accommodation: EVS volunteer will share an apartment with one of the members of Joint Association or with other volunteers, having enough space to live his/her own privacy.
Food: EVS volunteer will receive a monthly amount of money for food expenses; he/she will be self-governing the budget and will find every tool they need to cook in the kitchen.
Transportation: according to the distance from the apartment to the association's office, EVS volunteer will receive a pass for urban transportation, or in case of need an alternative transport mean such as a bicycle.
Working timetables and venues: activities run by EVS volunteer will require a planning stage to be realized in the office, and the realization of the planned activities in the realities where the association works, such as high schools, universities, InformingYouth Centre, Centres for youth aggregation, communities, etc. During the realization of international with exchanges in Italy, EVS volunteer will follow the rest of the team of volunteers and staff to the venue of the meeting, deciding with his/her project responsible when and how to take back possible free days lost. The volunteer will not work more than 30-35 hours a week and working days are normally from Monday to Friday; sometimes it could be needed from the volunteer to work during week-ends, but in that case he/she will take 2 free days before or after.
During the firs 2 months, the volunteer will receive a general tuition on the following themes:
- interpersonal communication and relationship;
- team work;
- conflict management;
- solution of problems;
- project management;
- Youth in Action programme and EVS.
During this learning path, the EVS volunteer will be followed by specific referent, according to the topics approached. In the first 2 months after the arrival, volunteer will undertake a full-immersion Italian course through in-class lessons, by a NGO partner that is dealing especially with teaching Italian to foreigners and also through a dedicated time to practice their spoken language skills with other members of the association. This will favor their understanding of local habits and improve their capability of adaptation to daily life in a foreigner context.
The methodologies common to both general and linguistic tuition consist of:
dynamic lessons: interactive meetings, training, role games and games to develop co-operation through simulation, evaluation and knowledge skills,
in-class lessons, readings, video broadcasting, information papers.
Our method of teaching focuses on active participation through behavioural simulation techniques.
The first month will be dedicated also to "technical" training of the volunteer. During this phase he/she will be spending 10-15 hours a week in frontal lessons, that a part from linguistic skills will also cover the themes of communication, working in a team, leadership, etc.; the volunteer will also have the first theoretical contact with the association's activities, and will learn how to use some Office applications.
The volunteer can realize his own projects, according to the organization's aims, or turn into account his personal backgrounds by changing his work methodology or modifying the tasks.
The main learning for the volunteer concerns the transversal skills that can be useful for his life, coming back, beside the competences and the capabilities acquired in the non-profit field intended to youth. The volunteer:
- will learn Italian language,
- will learn how to work with office and web applications,
- will improve his/her communication and project management skills,
- will learn how to lead a meeting, a workgroup with an objective to be achieved, and how to plan, budget and carry out a project in the youth field,
- will learn how to communicate with pupils and students, how to avoid and try to solve conflicts, how to promote an idea, how to raise funds and people,
- will have the opportunity to reflect on how to deal with people with a different culture, a different lifestyle, different customs and habits.
The project also aims at
- offering to EVS volunteer the opportunity to realize his/her own ideas into projects in autonomy, according to the goals of the organisation,
- implementing his/her experience, changing working methods or modifying his/her tasks.
" what will be the role of EVS volunteers in the Host Organisation,

Meanwhile, will undertake the linguistic training. Once he/she will be able to partially manage by him/herself the activities implemented by Joint, the volunteer will be encouraged and supported in the ideation of projects of his/her own which reflect his/her personal desire in improving the surrounding reality.
For the whole length of the project, EVS volunteer will take part in weekly meeting with the responsible of the project; volunteer will update about the activities done during the week, about the program of the next week, and about the proceeding of the training paths, and of the linguistic learning process.

We would like to host a volunteer that has a great motivation in working in the youth field, and that likes our organization's aims and goals. The volunteer needs to have willing of integration in our organization, willing to work with young people, even with those coming from a disadvantaged background. He/she should be able to work in team, to accept the special needs of disadvantaged people as well as help them developing their own ideas and experiences, has sufficient amount of patience, flexibility and tolerance.
EVS volunteer will work in close contact with members and the president of the association, and his/her tasks will require the same characteristics that define the role of volunteers in Joint association (independence, flexibility, relational skills).
Since there is no special requirement, every young person from 18 years old to 30, interested in taking part in our EVS project can contact us by e-mail, send his/her CV and motivation letter, and ask any information regarding the association or its activities. Once all the candidatures will be collected, an EVS working group meetings will take place in order to elaborate a classification list. After a phone interview with the volunteers and their sending organisations, we will write a list, considering their motivation and desire to learn, in order to decide who will take part to this project.
The following elements will be taken into consideration during the selection phase:
- inters for the topics of the project,
- desire and ability to work in team,
- mediation abilities and attitude for intercultural relations,
- responsibility and ability to manage in autonomy,
- desire to learn.
We accept both application from volunteers and from sending organizations, and the project was meant to try to avoid to address specifically to a boy or a girl, , because as already mentioned above, EVS volunteers do not have to take part in EVERY activity described
In order to better ensure EVS volunteer's safety, in the first phase of the project we will make an evaluation of the risks together with him/her, so that we'll involve him/her in the analysis of the critic aspects, in the evaluation of risks and in the research for reliable solutions. We believe that this procedure allows to show possible risks and to rise the volunteer's awareness regarding his/her own responsibilities in preventing and avoiding risks.
We believe that one of the stronger prevention measures consists in integrating completely EVS volunteer in the rest of the team, so that he/she feels comfortable in every location where will work, live and spend free time. We believe that a good network of social relations is essential to guarantee volunteers welfare and to assure them more safety. In order to reach this goal, the team of members, the Mentor and Joint's members will be very present from the arrival day to the very end of EVS volunteers' project, available for explanations and to show anything that volunteers may need to live in a safe, comfortable and stimulating environment.
Joint will work hard, with particular attention to the arrival period, in order to give EVS volunteer the chance to orient him/herself:
in the area of Milano, through a city tour focused to give them useful informations, such as where it's possible to deposit money, where to find libraries for texts, audio or video in Italian or in other languages, how to read bus timetables and route; and through a folder already prepared, that includes a map of the city with the public transports system, marks on the place of their accommodation (apartment) and of Joint's office, as well as a list of useful numbers to call in case of emergency,
in the association and into his/her EVS project, giving him/her a list of every volunteer and member, including their telephone contacts in case of emergency, their e-mail addresses, their role in the association and a picture, to make it easier to volunteers to memorize their names.
Moreover, the Mentor will have the role of "who is responsible for providing personal support to the volunteers", discussing with them their learning outcomes, their activities and roles, and helping them within the writing of the Youthpass report". This Mentor will be available to meet EVS volunteer in case of need, at the arrival and with the frequency that they will decide together. Young members and friends of Joint association will have the important task of facilitating EVS volunteer's integration in the local community and in giving him/her all the logistic support that may need.
Both the accommodation for EVS volunteer and Joint office are safe and respect the safety standards foreseen in the law now applied; they are in areas of the city easy to reach with public transports; in case of emergency, Joint is ready to react fast in order to:
collect most informations on the emergency
meet (or communicate on the phone) to decide how to react
contact the sending organisation and the person defined by the volunteers as the contact person in case of emergency.
Motivation and EVS experience
Joint Association works in the areas of Milan and its district and Turin since 2005 as accredited EVS sending and hosting organization, implementing the promotion of the European Voluntary Service both between young people and associations of the local community. Accredited since 2007 also as coordinating organization of EVS projects, Joint has sent until now more then 7 volunteers and since November '07 has started a cooperation with the InformingYouth Centre of the Municipality of Milan in order to realize information help-desks and public conferences to present EVS. Many young people take part in these meetings, showing that the Youth in Action program offers opportunities extremely interesting for them. Joint strongly believes in the potentials that the EVS can awaken or stimulate in youngsters, and for this reason is making of promoting EVS one of its most important activities. Until now Joint has not hosted EVS volunteers, but it is working in order to host one in 2009, in order to give to the association a better comprehension of what really means taking part in EVS; this experience will help our organization improve our promotion strategy for EVS sending and hosting projects. During 2008 an intense cooperation with the Association Casa per la Pace (House for Peace) was born, and it leaded to the creation of an EVS hosting project in Casa per la Pace coordinated by Joint that will bring 2 volunteers to Milan during 2009.
The reasons why Joint Association wants to take part actively in EVS lie in its desire to:
- offer to Italian and foreigner youngsters opportunities of growth and confrontation with realities different from their own;
- give a real example and a direct contact with what EVS means to all the youngsters that get in touch with Joint;
- offer to EVS volunteer a learning opportunity in a young and life-enhancing environment, where his/her ideas can take shape;
- give a European image to the association.
Description of the organisation
Joint was founded in December 2003 and promotes social activities for youngsters between 14 and 30. At present, the association has offices in Milan and Turin, that can count on six between full and part-time workers and about forty volunteers.
The mission of the organization consists of providing growth and enriching opportunities to young people with different backgrounds through non-formal education.
Its vision consists of:
" Preventing discomfort and social exclusion by creating support activities;
" Involving as many youngsters as possible in every activity especially in the planning stage;
" Educating youngsters to a peaceful cohabitation with people coming from different cultures, countries and social conditions;
" Promoting active and responsible citizenship among young people;
" Promoting the European identity
" Spreading out the "learning by doing method" to learn by enjoying.
In the last three years, as an accredited sending and hosting organization from the National Agency of the Youth in Action program, Joint focused in involving youngsters in international projects such as EVS and international youth exchanges. As an EVS sending, hosting and since 2007 also coordinating organization Joint implemented an intensive activity of promotion of EVS through information help-desks and public conferences, also cooperating with the InformingYouth Centre of the Municipality of Milan.
Since 2005 Joint send Italian groups of participants to international youth exchanges organized by our partner organizations, and also organize YE in Italy. Our association believes that the learning experience shouldn't take place just during the youth exchange, so we organize a training path that introduce Italian participants to the exchange and evaluate their experience once they go back to their realities, trying to involve as many youngsters as possible and to stimulate those that have not done any international and intercultural experience.
Joint addresses big attention to participation of its staff to the activities organized by the association, and in trying to include previous participants of youth exchanges, EVS and volunteers to training paths that can extend the learning process and enlarge their transversal skills.
These projects has the main goals of allowing to youngsters a confrontation in an intercultural environment, stimulating the awareness of the complexity of our society, and promoting language learning, through the meeting of youngsters from other European countries.
Joint believes that the best context to reach its goals is an informal environment that stimulates active participation of youngsters from different social backgroun
