Go vege for the environment

There are many reasons one might consider going vegetarian or vegan. Some people choose to do so simply because they believe eliminating meat and other animal products from their diet will be beneficial for their health (which can be true or not depending on each person’s situation). The most obvious argument for vegetarianism or veganism is, of course, the ethical...

Volonteri starijim korisnicima olakšavaju živote

Kada sam prije godinu dana došla u Krugove kao nova volonterka bez previše iskustva u područjima kojima se Krugovi bave, najveći strah mi je bio da se neću moći prilagoditi starijim ljudima kojima sam trebala pomoći, budući da nikad nisam radila sa starijima izuzev svojih baka i djedova. Već prvi posjet jednoj od korisnica Krugova promijenio mi je mišljenje i...

How to find and apply for an ESC volunteering project

Last year, as I was approaching my university graduation, I realized I wasn’t too keen on finding a regular job in my city right away. I wanted to have another (after my Erasmus study exchanges) international experience, try something new and I thought volunteering might be a good opportunity to do that. Soon I found out about the European Solidarity...

My 6 thoughts after 6 months of the volunteering project

The end of March marked the end of the first half of the Circles of Change ESC volunteering project at Krugovi. For me (together with the other ESC volunteers), this means 6 months of living in a new foreign place with new people, working in a new environment in a field that is far from what I know and using...

Aktivnosti programa zaposlenja Europskih Snaga Solidarnosti

U sklopu programa zaposlenja ESS-a, radim kao izvoditelj aktivnosti u Centru Krugovi na programu „Riječi koje liječe“.

Prvi puta čujete za ESS program stažiranja i zaposlenja? Onda je ovo odlična prilika da saznate nešto više o tome! Europske snage solidarnosti provode razne programe. Jedan od njih odnosi se na stažiranje i zapošljavanje unutar države u kojoj pojedinac boravi, ako ona pripada zemljama članicama Europske Unije, ili u drugoj državi Europske Unije. Ovo iskustvo omogućava stjecanje novih znanja,...
