Presentation for FLEX Alumni in American Council
Once again the
American Council for International Education invited DRONI for cooperation. 25thJanuary
a few EVS and local volunteers (Brais, Nini, Kalina, Liako and Kasia) visited the
American Council and gave a presentation for a group of students, members of
FLEX Alumni, about our activities. The meeting was held in a very friendly
atmosphere.
Firstly, the
volunteers started to give a short summary about DRONI’s historyand continued
to explain the main topics on which DRONI provide activities. Afterwards, they presented
the principles of the Youth in Action program, especially of those actions, in
which neighboring partner countries – like Georgia – are allowed to participate. The official
presentation was completed by a short movie screening made by Brais about
DRONI’s actions from the last few months and a presentation of DRONI’s ideas
and plans for the next months.
In the end,our DRONI
volunteers had a talk with the students about different aspects of
volunteering. Nini and Liako spoke about how to link studies with being a local volunteer and what are advantages of being active in a
local community. Brais, Kalina and Kasia shared their own experience about EVS.
They were speaking how to apply for EVS and why they decided to do a voluntary
service in Georgia.
