Europe-wide with Eurodesk

- By Barry Wright bwright@cbnews.es

PILAR de la Horadada youth informatio­n centre has joined the Europe-wide Eurodesk programme.

Eurodesk states on its website that it ‘believes that informatio­n is key to unlock the potential of the new generation­s’.

It works with over 1,600 youth informatio­n points in 36 countries that inform young people about travel opportunit­ies and encourage them to become active citizens.

By joining the programme the Pilar centre will become a ‘multiplier’ point, which is a ‘regional or local organisati­on working with young people, delivering youth informatio­n to them and advising them on mobility opportunit­ies’.

The service is offered to people aged from 16 to 30, and offers informatio­n on subjects, including accommodat­ion and discounts (e.g youth hostels) in European countries, education, training and work in Europe, resources for looking for work abroad, traveling in Europe, youth travel cards, youth exchanges, specific scholarshi­p searches, European youth volunteeri­ng, and searching for partners for European projects, programmes and initiative­s, amongst other things.

For further informatio­n email es051@eurodesk.eu, visit in person at Calle Ramón y Cajal 21, Pilar de la Horadada, telephone 96 676 77 99, WhatsApp 652 216 621 or visit the website https://europa.eu/ youth/home_en

The centre’s Eurodesk service is available, with a prior appointmen­t, on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 09.00-13.30, and Wednesdays from 16.0019.30.
