<< Objectives >>Our main objectives are:1, to increase the number and diversity of long-term volunteering possibilities for young from the Czech Republic and Slovak republic with fewer opportunities by involving higher number of organizations from especially partner countries and non-European countries into our projects2, to increase the quality of work with volunteers before, during and after their mission<< Implementation >>Kick off transnational meeting and initial trainingsMidterm transnational meeting and trainingsIncreasing the number of long-term volunteers sent outside EUProject management and coordinationYouth exchange preparation and best practiceHosting long-term volunteers, but how?Final meeting and training<< Results >>We expect to: apply for the QL for humanitarian aid and together with Keric see the first best practise about the organization outside EU within this QL and how to host volunteers in this program. After the end of the projects, we expect to be able to organize our first humanitarian ESC project. As a result with expect to gain knowledge on how to organize short-term youth exchange.Both Keric and United Vision expect to have physical/online material on best practice on hosting volunteers.

CODET 2 used our experience and concrete outcomes of CODET 1.CODET 2 (Community development through English teaching) project aimed at creating a sustainable network of 3 European, 3 Asian and 2 Latin American EVS organisations having the capacity to host/send youth with fewer opportunities for EVS, improving the quality of EVS projects and capacity-building of staff of these organisations. It connected 8 EVS partners (KERIC Slovakia, ICYE Bolivia, VASE Ecuador, DEJAVATO Indonesia, COM Myanmar, JRP India, AJP Portugal, United Vision the Czech Republic).During the project, 11 European volunteers did their EVS in Ecuador, Indonesia, India for 6 months, in Myanmar for 4 months, and in Bolivia for 11, 6, 1 months - teaching English using non-formal education methods to people in the local communities and doing an SCD (sustainable community development) project on topics such as entrepreneurship, WASH (water, sanitation, and hygiene), environmental activities or eco-tourism. Through EVS, they gained new personal and professional skills, increased their employability, and became more open and tolerant of other cultures. At the same time, the activities of the volunteers supported the sustainable development of the local communities and the empowerment of its people. 5 EVS volunteers did their EVS in Slovakia and Portugal. The mutual exchange between European and OPC partners helped improve the quality of EVS projects and help to create a strong EVS network among the partners. Volunteers cooperated the first with European volunteers in their own country and there was an exchange of experience and knowledge about the country and methodology.19 people took a part in TETSCD training (Through English teaching towards sustainable community development training). European partners sent 1 person responsible for the preparation of the volunteers and 1 person who provided methodological support to the volunteers. Asia and Latin American partners sent 2 local educators who were active in the HEEG, one of them a person who was later responsible for the support of the EVS volunteer during his/her stay and one of them a responsible person from the host organisation.2 EVS organisations were new-comers to EVS, so a supervision visit was organised one month after the arrival of the volunteers to monitor and support the host organisations as well as the volunteers. The ELT (English language teaching) module was adapted and used as support for volunteers with no previous teaching experience to deliver English lessons using non-formal education methods to people in the local communities in Ecuador, Bolivia, Indonesia, India, and Myanmar. The SCD (Sustainable Community Development) toolbox was adapted and used to provide simple activities for volunteers to help the sustainable development of local communities in Asia and Latin America. The following activities took place during the project: - a kick-off meeting(11 project coordinators and trainers) - 15 EVS projects - 19 mobilities of youth workers - participation in TETSCD training (Through English teaching towards sustainable community development training)- 2 EVS supervisions in new partner organisations (2 experts for each visit) - online evaluation meetings (10 project coordinators and trainers) The methods of work followed the principles of non-formal education.

CODET (Community development through English teaching) project aimed at creating a sustainable network of 4 European and 2 Asian and 2 Latin American EVS organisations having the capacity to host/send youth with fewer opportunities for EVS, improving the quality of EVS projects and capacity-building of staff of these organisations. It connected 8 EVS partners (KERIC, Slovakia, ICYE, Honduras, Centro Cultural Germina , Mexico, CSDS, Vietnam, KYSD, Cambodia, Vitatiim, Estonia, United Vision, the Czech Republic, VSI, Ireland) and 2 formal institutions (The University of Latvia and Kimmage DSC, Ireland) During the project, 12 European volunteers did their EVS in Honduras, Mexico, Cambodia and Vietnam for 3 months - teaching English using non-formal education methods to people in the local communities and doing a SCD (sustainable community development) project on topics such as entrepreneurship, WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) or eco-tourism. Through EVS, they gained new personal and professional skills, increased their employability and became more open and tolerant to other cultures. At the same time, the activities of the volunteers supported a sustainable development of the local communities and empoweverment of its people. 8 EVS staff members or people connected with organisations from Honduras, Cambodia and Vietnam attended a mobility visit in Europe to gain new competencies, new intercultural and professional experience. The mutual exchange between European and OPC partners helped improve the quality of EVS projects and help to create a strong EVS network among the partners. 2 EVS organisations were new-comers to EVS, so a supervision visit was organised one month of the arrival of the volunteers to monitor and support the host organisations as well as the volunteers. The CODET ELT (English language teaching) module was created and tested as support for volunteers with no previous teaching experience to deliver English lessons using non-formal education methods to people in the local communities in Cambodia, Mexico, Honduras and Vietnam. The CODET SCD (Sustainable Community Development) toolbox was created and tested to provide simple activities for volunteers to help the sustainable development of local communities in Asia and Latin America. The following activities took place during the project: - a kick-off meeting(12 project coordinators and trainers) - 12 EVS projects - 8 mobilities of youth workers (8 EVS staff members or people connected with organisations from OPC countries) - 2 EVS supervisions in new partner organisations (2 experts for each visit) - evaluation meeting (13 project coordinators and trainers) The methods of work followed the principles of non-formal education.
