The Youth in Action programme offers young Europeans the chance to make a real difference to the world – and to their own lives – through the European Voluntary Service.
The European Voluntary Service (EVS) provides young Europeans with the unique chance to express their personal commitment through unpaid and full-time voluntary activities in a foreign country within or outside the EU. In this way, it seeks to develop solidarity, mutual understanding and tolerance among young people, thus contributing to reinforcing social cohesion in the European Union and to promoting young people's active citizenship.
BirdLife Malta currently has two British EVS volunteers working with the organisation from March 2009 - February 2010, Matthew Johnson and Niki Rust. This project has been funded with support from the European Commission. Please click on their profiles for more information about their experiences as EVS volunteers and BirdLife Malta members of staff.
If you would like to apply for an EVS position between February 2010 - January 2011 please visit Environment Job and follow the instructions.
