Finding solutions for challenges.
The facilitators have divided the participants into five groups and gave them assignments to prepare a performance which was called “Forum Theatre”. Through the activity the members of those small groups showed the challenges which can happen with volunteers in EVS project.
Organizational fair.
The aim of the activity was to give an opportunity the participants to present their organization, how they are called, what is the aim, the participants, experience etc. The way how they were presenting their organizations was through fashion show. The participants had to make some costume with some basic information about their organizations on them, and also they had chance to have speech about the presented organizations.
