About [Edit]
The Alliance of European Voluntary Service Organisations is an International Non-Governmental Youth Organisation that represents national organisations which promote intercultural education, understanding and peace through voluntary service.Each member organisation runs an annual programme of International Volunteer Projects in their own country and exchanges volunteers with each other to create an international group of volunteer workers on each project.
International Volunteer Projects are organised by Alliance members either on a national or regional basis but always in partnership with local communities. They engage the volunteer groups in a wide diversity of community development tasks including environmental, construction, renovation, social, cultural and archaeological work.
The Alliance consists of like-minded national organisations involved in international voluntary service who promote international understanding, peace and voluntary service as a valuable force in the common search for human betterment and encourage and support wherever possible local voluntary programmes enabling people, especially youth, to make new friends and encounter and understand different cultures with an educational objective.
The aims and objectives of the Alliance are:
- To provide voluntary service organisations with opportunities to discuss and exchange experience and information within Europe.
- To facilitate and improve the co-operation between voluntary service organisations.
- To look after the interests of its members through exercising influence on international bodies involved in voluntary service, youth policy, youth training and youth exchange, as an initiative for the furtherance of youth exchange and voluntary service.
- To inform members about debates and developments at a European and non-European level which are of relevance to the members.
- The Alliance aims at the widest possible co-operation at a European, and a non-European level.
- The EC ensures that the functioning of the Alliance is in accordance with the common interest of its members.
