GFC European Solidarity Corps – Application Form

Welcome to the European Solidarity Corps (ESC) volunteering opportunity at Generation for Change CY (GFC). This initiative aims to host three dynamic young participants aged 18-30 in 2025-2026. As an ESC participant, you will contribute significantly to our mission of supporting vulnerable and marginalized communities in Cyprus. In return, you will gain invaluable lifelong skills and knowledge for your professional and personal growth. You will also have the chance to experience Cyprus’ diversity, delve into new cultural lenses, and connect with fellow young volunteers. Here is a post covering our 2024-2025 volunteers.

During your engagement, you will be involved in various areas of our work within the three pillars of our organization: Humanitarian Aid, Empowerment and Integration, and Awareness-raising and Advocacy. Your specific roles and tasks, which will be determined during the interview and volunteering stages, may include coordinating and implementing projects, delivering empowerment and integration services, sorting and preparing material donations, planning and implementing training courses and events, and conducting research and writing reports.
GFC offers a comprehensive support package to ensure a rewarding and enriching experience. This includes accommodation in a fully furnished flat close to our office in Nicosia, Cyprus, a monthly stipend of 400€ for meals and additional expenses, travel expense reimbursement, medical insurance coverage, local transportation, language support activities, and continuous training, support, and mentorship. We look forward to welcoming you to our team and working together to drive positive change. You can access the info kit of the opportunity here.
