Hi, my name is Dorin and for the last 6 months, I have been a volunteer in Kielce, Poland. Kielce is a small city stationed between Warsaw and Krakow, it is very calm and peaceful compared to the big cities.
Everything began when I found this project on the ESC portal and arrived in Latvia on the 15th of September. From day one, I had to start from scratch—learning how to work in a youth center, manage social media, and connect with local youth. It was all new to me, but somehow, it felt like I belonged there right away. Years ago, I was in Latvia for an Erasmus program in Latgale (Daugavpils); this time, I was exploring the beautiful western Zemgale region.
From June 17 to 25, 2024, young people from Hungary, Greece, Germany, Romania, Spain and Turkey gathered in Gánt, Hungary, for the Give Peace a Chance! youth exchange organized by our Hungarian partner, Együttható Egyesület, a program designed to bridge the gaps preventing youth from actively engaging in peace efforts.
Poland, with its rich history, cultural diversity and wealth of movements, is a great place for those who want to volunteer. The country offers many volunteer opportunities in social services, environmental protection, education and culture.
Located in the south of Poland, Katowice has become one of the developing cities that has blown a wind of change in recent years. Although it is mostly known as a business and industrial city, there is a different side to life in this city. When I decided to come here as a volunteer, I stepped into this new world knowing only Turkish and English. I would like to tell about the experiences that Katowice offered me and the life here

Hello,
I’m Necibe Sena, one of the lucky volunteers who had the opportunity to participate in the UNITY Project, which took place from July 1st to August 8th 😊. My adventure in Romania began at the airport.
