Portrayed: ESC Volunteers in Bremen
It was a pleasure to portrait young Europeans during their voluntary service in Bremen.
The European Solidarity Corps (ESC) is a EU commission funded mobility programme that enables young people aged 18-30 to spend up to 12 months in an EU or associated partner country (e.g. Jordan, North-Macedonia). Fields of action span from cultural and social to eco and human rights themes. I'm a huge fan of the programme myself bc participation is free of charge i.e. fully funded by the EU commission and therefore more inclusive and accessible for youth with fewer funds than any international program I know of. Through this publication I hope to reach, inform and encourage more young people to give ESC a try.
