The host project 2007-ES-140
“obre’t’ebre Interculturality”

The volunteers collaborate in the realization of the projects of the association, for example: organizing youth exchanges or workcamps, establishing contacts with new partners from other countries, organizing the cycle of talks in schools… but they also can develop their own projects for young people of the Terres de l'Ebre. The volunteers help to develop materials to improve the EVS quality (like city guides), but also things that, from their point of view, can improve the work done by the association. Through the European volunteers, obre’t’ebre collaborate with other associations of Tortosa:

Collaboration with Atzavara-Arrels
En 2008, Ruqaya worked part time in Atzavara-Arrels, where she organized activities for youngsters that come to the center, support classes, english lessons, handicrafts workshops... and also helped to give information to the newcomers that come to the center.

Collaboration with the Red Cross Youth
In 2007, we hosted a volunteer from Austria, who collaborated in the project “Hospitalized Kids Care”, which is part of the actions of prevention and promotion of youngster’s quality of life by the Red Cross Youth. She realized school support and leisure time activities for the hospitalized kids, who were waiting for diagnostic or treatment for short or long term diseases.

Collaboration with the Centre Obert Sant Francesc
In 2006, Niki and Paula offered support classes and language classes in the Sant Francesc Center, organisation that depends on the City Council of Tortosa, where the kids mainly come from the district of El Rastre.
